Our miss Lucy sure has been struggling with her sleeping habits. The only time a person can trust her to take a real true honest-to-goodness long refreshing nap is Sunday morning. Right during church. She consistently will nap at that time--and for a good 3 hours. But any other day that I carefully set aside the time and make sure I'm home so that she can nap and I can get stuff done, it never really works. The nap ends early, never happens, something. Anyway, for the last couple of weeks I've stayed home from church or left after sacrament so that Miss L could sleep. And sleep she has.
When she wakes up she's so cheery and adorable, I just wish we could get her sleeping like this more regularly. Look at that cute little face. Immediately post nap.
And after a great nap she got to wear Daddy's hat for a while in the afternoon.
I'll do anything for that little face.

She does look well rested...
The hat face just gives me chills. It's like a Ruebens or something - she - is it her spirit that shines through that little body? Those eyes. She is delighted to be here, and she has wells of love so deep, they will never run out. I also yearn to be done with time so that I can run back and forth between this face, and the one I will see when she holds her own child - and when she is old. But of course, those last two - I will be old and then gone before I get a chance to see those things, and how much of me will be able to run this body by then? How much will my eyes be able to see, and my brain to perceive? The two of you are so joined, you and that little girl. The love just aches, there's so much of it.
I'm so bad on keeping up with blogs these days. But sometimes I realize that I can get my Lucy and Sandman and Maxxxx fix and get all excited to read your posts. That first hat picture is like the best. xoxo from California!
