Morning Cuddles

Dear Lila,

I am not a morning person. I am not the type who bounces out of bed as soon as the alarm goes off. I am more of the hit-the-snooze-button-multiple-times-and-bury-my-face-in-my-pillow type. But I love our early morning cuddles. I usually nurse you around 5am and then we snuggle in my bed until 7am (at which point your brother gets up, runs into the room and hurls himself onto the bed next to us, oof). I love laying next to you with your face just inches away from mine, watching you smile at me, listening to you coo and feeling your fingers graze my nose and cheeks as you gently bat my face. I can't think of a better way to start the day.

Love,

Mom
