What I Never Want to Forget! {Annalee}

This little lady is the most cuddly, snuggly, happy baby we have ever had. All my kids have been happy, and so much fun, but there is just something different about her. She is content...not just content, so happy about everything. She is patient with me. She knows her needs will be met, even if she has to wait a minute. It is like she knows when I am busy with the other kids, and patiently waits her turn. I have tried to figure out what is so diffrent and why, I think maybe her calm, gentle birth has much to do with it, I think maybe all those school classes I took on newborns and how they respond and communicate with their mothers changed me, but truly I just think much of it is her.

At night when I lay next to Annalee she scoots right up next to me. If I move over so I am not touching her, she picks up her little body and uses her chubby little legs to scoot her body sideways to snuggle up right next to me again. She is a snuggler. When she is ready to eat, she reaches out her leg and pushes against my body again and again until I am brought back to consiousness and she grunts at me until I can roll over and fed her. Maybe she is so content because there are so many who love to hold, entertain and play with her. Maybe she is just happy to be here, at least that is what I feel most from her huge spirit...She is just happy to be here! And I am so happy to have her!
