lucy has been sick lately. she has a cough and fever and has been keeping me up the last 3 nights or so. but i have to say, it is at night when she is feeling ucky and preventing me from sleeping that i just stare at her and think how sweet she is and how lucky i am to have her.
she loves her belly being rubbed, then rolls over to her back. it is her comfort. she threw up during a coughing attack in the middle of the night and had bits of spaghetti all over her face and hair. i told her i was going to put her in the bath (for the second time that night) and she just said in her sweet tired voice, "all right". i tucked her in my bed in clean jammies and told her i would be right back, "all right". she doesn't cry or whine when she is sick. she just lays there, tells me what she needs, "tinkerbell cup", or "i need bowl", and always tells me thank you and that she loves me.
i was just thinking last night at about 1am, that it is truly when we are serving other people that we grow to love them the most. i'm glad my baby girl is so easy to serve and love.
hope this post is not a mumbled mess... afterall, i am running on little sleep....
