The sweetest thing

This week, Riley has begun a new little habit that just melts me. I have started rocking her to sleep in her own room, as she has begun sleeping in her crib instead of her bassinet.

When I'm rocking her, after her breathing has become slow and deep, right when she is on the edge of slumber...she opens her beautiful blue eyes and smiles right at me. Then her eyes become heavy again and sleep overtakes her. These are the moments, when we are both wrapped up in each other and I can tell she feels safe and loved...these are the moments I know I will treasure forever.

Love you, Riley-bug. Love you more than I ever thought possible.
