Becoming Daddy's girl





Claire's nighttime routine has always been a special time for her and I. We say our prayer with Daddy, then go upstairs to brush teeth, say a few more prayers, and rock while I sing "Jesus loves you" to Claire. This is my time to cuddle with my little girl and just relax and enjoy the moment. Well, the other night everything changed for me. I went through the night routine and when I got to Claire's bedroom and ready to rock with her, she said "Daddy rock". It broke my heart because I didn't get to see Claire all day due to work. What made it all okay though was seeing the huge grin on Jeff's face as he walked into Claire's bedroom and she reached out for him. I told her I loved her and said my goodnights before heading downstairs trying not to cry. It was very difficult for me to not have this time with my baby but it was also awesome to see Claire and her Daddy rocking to sleep.
