About 3 years ago I was visiting my dearest friend Laura. At the time she was mother to Charlie who was 14 months. He was precious but busy. A typical toddler. After bedtime she told me how she missed him once he went to sleep. I remember thinking her crazy! I was exhausted by the time he fell asleep. At the time I was desperate to become pregnant but could not foresee missing a child once they were asleep.
Fast forward three years. Miss C is early to bed, early to rise. Some nights it could be the earlier the better. Tonight is one of those nights. A less than 30 minute nap and daddy working late. However, she will soon be snuggled down and I will feel a now familiar pang. It's me missing my sweet girl. The same one who threw a fit at Chick Fil A today embarrassing me. The same one who didn't nap nearly long enough. The same one who refuses to eat whatever I pack her for lunch at MDO. The same one who gives the sweetest kisses, tightest hugs, and has the cutest giggle. She's not even asleep and I miss her already.

Hope you weren't worried about us at Chick-Fil-A. My kid was climbing and trying to stand on top of the booth seat.
I feel these pangs every night both of the kids are in bed, like I just want to pick them up and put them in the bed with me. :)
