My child gets Me...

Kaydence and I have an awesome relationship! I saw last night just how well my daughter...gets me. Well it had been a rough night making Halloween costumes, babysitting, etc. And not to mention Kaydence was not at all interested in taking a nap. So needless to say she was exhausted and so was I. So when we finally made it home I was just ready for her to go on to bed and for me to get some house work done and go on to bed myself. But that did not happen! Kaydence was wide awake when we got home and my patience was wearing thin...I was just getting so irritated. I finally put Kaydence in the bed with me (which I'm trying not to do) and we laid there and snuggled and she looked into my eyes with her big blue eyes and softly put her little hand on my cheek and stroked my face! It was the sweetest gesture from such a sweet child. It may sound corney, but she made everything better with that little stroke! She soon turned over and fell asleep in my arms. And though I do not want her to get used to sleeping with me, I love for her to fall asleep with me and for us to have our cuddle times! I need those and so does she!

So this is, and has already been a long week of working and preparation for Halloween. Hopefully when this week is over I can get Kaydence back to a normal routine!! These late nights are killing us! She is doing well though...she adapts to change well, which is very much welcome and appreciated in this house hold considering our lives are constantly changing!
