What a Daddy's Girl

Emma is most definitely a Daddy's girl... Tonight we went through our normal after-dinner routine: play time until showing tired signs, bath, jammies on, and a snack to send her off to dream land.

And everything went down like a charm....until about 30 minutes after she fell asleep.

She started getting a little restless (most unusual) -- I guessed it was because she was hot(a sweaty head is usually a good indication of that...). So I switched her to the other side so that the side of her resting against my arm could cool off.

Then Daddy came in the room and started talking to me about something (very,very quietly; not unusual).

Emma heard her Daddy's voice and, and despite the overwhelming desire for sleep, was unable to be content merely listening to Daddy but simply had to gaze on him. He moved to the other side of the room, trying to get out of her line of sight, but she would not accept this arrangement! She merely craned her head the other direction, ignoring Mommy's attempts to soothe her to sleep. Nothing would satisfy her but falling asleep in her Daddy's arms.

Most definitely a Daddy's girl! And Mommy is quite content with this turn of events.

*satisfied sigh*
