a good day for sleeping...



Yes, that's what Isabella must have decided this morning. After sleeping in I was sure our napping "schedule" would be off. Instead, she cried herself to sleep in 20 minutes or less for all 3 naps today! YAY! This is a huge milestone for us. I cherish the time of rocking her to sleep, snuggling and cuddling. I relish the moments of gazing at her face all mushed up against me as she rests peacefully. I have loved it. For everything there is a season, however, and since I find it important that she be able to put herself to sleep eventually, we have started the process. UGH. As every parent before me and every one after agrees, I hate this. But, today was encouraging. One day she will fall asleep with less drama. One day she might even sleep through the night, but that's another feat for another week.
