This Magic Moment...

I put Konrad down for his afternoon nap, and waited for him to nod off to dreamland before, running the vacuum, and bleaching the kitchen (we have a crazy fish odor we can't shake). Well, that never happened, he played in his crib, and the started to cry to inform me that nap time would not happen as planned. I went and grabbed him, and saw in his eyes how sleepy he truly was, but I abide by his demands and picked him up, and am I SO HAPPY I DID. the moment I picked him up he smiled his, I love you smile, and cuddled up under the nap of my neck. We wen and lounged out on the sofa, and he nodded off to dreamland. Part of me wanted to put him back in this crib, and then I thought of how seldom moments like this really happen, so I got really comfortable and just took it all in. His super soft skin, his slow labored breaths, the feel of his breathing on my arm, and the feeling that this is truly a magical moment. After about ten mins of this he lifted his sweet little head gave me a big smile, and smacked me in the middle of my forehead! lol... Those moments must be taken in because they happen so rarely and all too often only last a moment. I really wish I had a picture to share, but it was just Konrad and I, and dreamland.

I must go, he just fell asleep in his crib, after pulling all the books off my shelves. Mom has some housework to do. ;) Until next take.
