Someone...

As I watched my beautiful daughter sleep tonight I realized...

For three full months...

Someone watched her sleep

Someone changed her diaper

Someone fed her when she was hungry

Someone held her little hand and counted her fingers

Someone sang to her when she wouldn't fall asleep

Someone burped her

Someone walked with her when she had an upset tummy

Someone wrapped her in warm clothing and held her tight

Someone loved her

And then they let her go

  1. That just breaks my heart! I know I have had many moments watching my daughter sleep, when I wonder about her first days, and her first mother...
    Beautiful post!

  2. I often think about the boys' mothers. My oldest was with his mom 11 months. I pray for those moms. I like your post. Very touching.
