Last night I scooped up a warm, sleeping little Piper and took her into the bathroom to dream pee* before I went to bed. I carried her back to bed and before I laid her back down I held her in my arms and swayed back and forth and cuddled her sleeping little body for a few minutes. She was so warm and cuddly and sweet and I smoshed my face into her blond curls and took a long deep breath and tried to remember this special moment.
While I laid her back down in her bed full of pink blankets and books and babydolls I whispered in her ear "I love you" and she squeaked out a very quiet, but clear "I love you too Daddy."
Nice! Nope, it's just Mom, who carried you for 10 months, squeezed you out of her undercarriage and then fed you from her own body for over a year.
*Does everyone else do the dream pee with their kids or is that just a Purnell Sister thing? We did this a few times when she first started sleeping without a pull-up and she would either squeeze out a few drops or would tell us in a total daze "no pee pee" so we stopped doing it. I only take her on nights now when she drinks way too much water before bed.
