I went to bed at 11:30pm. Titania woke up 20 minutes later and I got to indulge in one of my favorite things, giving her a bottle while lying in my bed.
I love when she reaches out to touch me with her icy cold fingers (cold because of the cold milk in her bottle), and how she tries to watch TV while still drinking but she just cant seem to position the bottle to drink and watch at the same time.
Tonight I let her stay in bed with me a little bit longer the usual, I just didn’t want to put her back in her crib yet, she almost fell asleep in my arms. It's been a while since she’s done that. It only lasted a few minutes before she realized she was up past her bedtime, it must be playtime.
I let her sit up, played with her as she reached for the remote so she could push the buttons, and the smile she had on her face while pushing those buttons was just great.
Watching her do the simplest things brings such a joy to her face. I just love watching her discover the world. It really makes you stop and notice the little things. Like discovering for the first time that 2 brightly colored blocks make such an interesting sound when you bang them together.
As we grow and mature we tend to forget the amazement in such little things. I think we should all stop, take a step back and really look at the world around us. We may surprise ourselves.
