Sleeping girls

After a long day, filled with stress and strife, it takes a while to wind down. A glass of wine, perhaps two, goes a long way in melting away the worries of the day.

However, there is an even better cure. Go into your child's room once she is asleep, and just watch her. See how sweet and innocent she looks, snuggled up with her books and her stuffed animals. Check on your baby, and watch her breathe in and out peacefully. Rub her warm little back, and feel the tension melt away from your body.

An even better cure is to lay down with your kids, letting their appealing child smell fill your nose while their warm little selves snuggle up to you for security. This works well when Daddy is out of town, and is sure to take you back to the months when they were tiny babies who would fall asleep on your chest.

Really, it doesn't get much better.
