An extra hug

Samara usually doesn't cry after we put her to bed. Tonight - 15 minutes post-lay-down - she started crying. I figured she had lost her lovey over the side of the crib, so I went in to retrieve it... but instead of standing at the edge of her crib, pointing down forlornly at the dropped blanket, she was just laying there, whimpering. I went to her, rearranged her blankets - and then she lifted her arms to me.

She just wanted an extra hug.

Awwww....

I hugged her and found a latest favorite stuffed animal - a tiny penguin - to tuck in with her.


Sleep tight, sweet one.


And on a totally unrelated note - a black velvety maternity outfit that I bought secondhand turned my skin totally gray today. ?!?!

Gray huh? That's strange... But extra hugs are always nice. :)
