Hard Work

Today was one of those days where being a mommy was hard.

Exhausting hard work.

I felt like I said "no no" and "talk nice" and "no hitting" and "use your words" a lot.

It was a day where bedtime could just not come soon enough.

And now, two hours after my sweet bambino has been tucked into bed, I miss her little personality and would secretly like to sneak into her room to cuddle her or watch her sleep.

But I won't. Even though I'm tempted. Because two hours is just not enough for a sweet baby to restock on pleasantries. Maybe by morning she'll be back to her chipper self.
