Uh-ma

Luke has always been my "easy baby", and bedtime has always been a cinch with him. I never have given him a bottle at bed (made that mistake with the girl:), and I have always laid him down wide awake (made that mistake too, ha!). But "our thing" has always been rocking. Every night I rock him and sing him a song, then I tell him I love him, lay him in his bed, and he says "night night". Every night. Always me. On Tuesday night he was restless when I sat down in the rocking chair, and I could not get him to settle down. Finally he started saying "Uh-ma" over and over. I called her into his room, and she rocked him...

He has asked for her every night since (bittersweet).
