Emma fell asleep tonight. On her own. In her own bed. For the first time since she was 5 months old. And she is completely, totally 100% weaned. Finally. Except for the 3 or so times that she was tired and assumed her nursing position, laying down in my arms playing with her hair. I was able to distract her and we moved on. She’s growing up. And for the first time in 13 months I’m only nursing one baby.
When I read your post, it reminded me of these lyrics:Is this the little girl I carried?Is this the little boy at play?I don't remember growing olderWhen did they?When did she get to be a beauty?When did he grow to be so tall?Wasn't it yesterdayWhen they were small?Sunrise, sunsetSunrise, sunsetSwiftly flow the daysSeedlings turn overnight to sunflowersBlossoming even as we gaze
One of my favorites.
