Is there room for me?

I’ve written before about the desire to squish when love overcomes you. Last night, I went to check on Bubba in the middle of the night.

She’s doing so much better and is sleeping more like her old self. If we keep going the way we are, she might be back to sleeping through the night soon – yay for all of us!

I snuck into her room, wrapped my hands around her warm little body and scooched her (along with her cuddly puppy, whose tail she was holding firmly onto) from the corner of her cot to the middle, when I was overcome with emotion.

Looking at my divine daughter, sleeping peacefully, I had to fight the urge to climb in with her and snuggle down for the night.

Is there room for me?

It’s moments like that one which make all the bumpy times we’ve had lately disappear into thin air.

This is why I’m a mumma.

I can’t imagine another love like it.

    I know exactly what you are saying. I don’t think there is ever another love like that one 🙂

    Note: I subscribed to your blog but haven’t been getting updates. I’ll try again.

        I clicked the follow and didn’t see the updates so I went back today and clicked to follow by email so I will see if I get them now.

  4. I sneak into bed with my daughter every once in awhile, and she is nine. It is the only time, now, that she will hug me with no inhibitions and snuggle up next to me. Sometimes we both need that!

    1. I know there may be a time where I want my own space back, but I can’t imagine ever not wanting to share it with her. Sounds like Dimples loves being snuggled up to her mumma too!
