Sleeping Babies

Yesterday was Missy's 8th anniversary. My goodness. It's hard to believe that eight years ago she became a wife. Time does go by fast.

The kids wanted to have a nice anniversary dinner so I, of course, volunteered to take care of the baby for them. The sacrafices I make.

I love taking care of that little girl. She is such a joy. We were doing great but, unfortunately, I had to go the bathroom. Thinking I had it all under control, I put Serif in her highchair with some stars to eat and tried to sneak off. Alas, it did not work. The screaming started just as I was sitting down. Boy you have no idea how fast you can go to the bathroom when you have a screaming baby. Needless to say she had worked herself up pretty good when I got back. So as soon as I picked her up, she laid her head down on my shoulder and went to sleep. Now I ask you, is there anything better than a sleeping baby in your arms? Of course, the answer is no. She is so soft and cuddly. I love feeling her breathing on my cheek. I just sat on the sofa taking in this wonderful miracle in my arms. I still can't believe she's my granddaughter. I also like to play with her hands and feet while she sleeps but we won't talk about that.

She woke up happy and smiling. What a wonderful little girl. We had some more stars and some chicken and rice and formula. She would eat and talk. Many times at the same time. I got to be silly and sing silly songs. Babies and dogs are good about that because they don't even think you're acting wierd. They just love it.

The evening was short. Mommy and Daddy came home while we were eating. When they arrive no one else matters. Just them. That's the way it should be. It was time for me to go home to Bosco and make up for being late again. Poor puppy has no idea when to expect me anymore. With the holidays over, I should get back on a regular schedule. I really need to because my house definitely needs a good cleaning.

Well enough of my evening. Today is another day and there is work to do. God bless and everyone enjoy a wonderful day.
