The waiting game





Now that Yasemin is 6 months old she is sleeping much better at night. Most of the time.


I spend most of my days playing with her, making her food, cleaning up after her, feeding her, changing her and a whole list of other things. I am so happy when she sleeps during the day, normally 2 naps lasting about 1 1/2 hours to 2 hours. When she goes to sleep I sigh from relief and do things that aren't so possible when she is awake. I go to the bathroom, take a shower, eat something, check my mail. Then........ I wait. Wait for her to wake up so I can see that beautiful smile when I look over her crib at her. I wait to be able to pick her up and feel her wiggly warm body. I wait to be able to kiss her squishy skin in the place I like best behind her ears. After I have done all that and the normal day to day caring and loving of her.......I wait. I wait for the time she sleeps again to have some time to myself again... starting the whole cycle all over again.
