Usually, when we put Jessica to bed at night, she will sleep through the night with no problems. Every once in awhile she wakes up. When she wakes up she is crying because of a wet diaper or a nightmare. Not tonight. Tonight, about an hour and a half after Jer and I put her to bed, we thought we heard her talking in her room. She got louder and louder until we heard her calling out, "Daddy! I love you! ... Mommy! I love you! ... Daddy! I love you! ... Mommy! I love you!" Jer told me not to go in but my heart just couldn't handle it because it was just too cute! I wanted her to know that I heard her and that I loved her too. I think in his heart of hearts Jer couldn't handle it either because he went in with me. She was just laying in her bed, holding her puppies, and calling out over and over that she loved us.
When she saw us looking over the edge of her crib (yes, she is still in her crib... big girl bed is being debated after tonight) she just gave us the biggest, best, and sweetest smile. I changed her diaper (it was wet) gave her some more milk and just rocked her for a few minutes. She may be 2.5 years old, but there is something still so sweet about rocking my little angel girl. I won't be able to do it pretty soon and I want to hold on to moments like these as long as possible. She was fine after that and said, "I love you Mommy" and let me put her back into her crib where she went right to sleep.

Too cute!! I hate that I'm missing seeing her grow up. I just want to hug and kiss her. She's getting too big!
