Midnight sweetness!

It happened once again and I am sure it won't be the last time. This time I wasn't upset and groggy like other times. It was actually a sweet and special moment for me. I was able to cuddle with both of my daughters in a way I normally don't do and not because I don't want to, but because of how crazy the days get (I have to admit that sometimes I can get too caught up with my stuff that I pay less attention to them).

So at about midnight, Velani had an accident. We had to change her clothes and her bedding. While trying to do all of that I tried to do it as silently as possible in order to not wake up the little one, I also decided to check her glucose just in case (it was normal). So then I noticed that my attempt to be quiet, failed. Like every other night Mia awoke and wanted to be part of the midnight sweetness that was in store for me. She was standing in her crib waiting for mommy to get her and feed her. Velani was in her bed at this point trying to fall back asleep. So I took Mia and sat down with her in my comfy rocking chair that I just love so much! I began to nurse her and a couple of minutes later Velani got out of her bed and came to me and told me she wanted to sit with Mia and me. I don't know how I did it, but I had both of my girls with me, one was nursing on one side and the other was just resting on the other. They both fell asleep and I was able to just admire both of them and think of how blessed I am for having a family. I just kept thinking of Velani when she was Mia's size not too long ago and now I have another little girl who is growing so fast. I had always dreamed of having children, but never imagined myself like this and how it would feel like to have them in my arms this way. Each day I love them more and each day I find myself loved more by these precious girls. I love them sooo much and wish I could slow time down, but I guess I can't. I just have to spend my time wisely with them and love them and smooch on them as much as I can.

So during that sweet moment I was spending with them I thought "how the heck am I going to get up and put them each in their own bed without waking them up?" Well, I managed, but not like I thought, they did wake up, but fell right back to sleep.

I don't mind these midnight sweetness at all, I just hope to wake up in a sweet mood more often.
