A brief disclaimer ... parents of children who sleep may find this pathetic.
Sam gave me the most wonderful gift last night. He's teething insanely (molars!) and woke up almost every two hours. But at 2am, when waking up was really painful for me, he did something we've quite frankly been hoping for ... he got out of his bed, came into our room, asked to be lifted into bed, gave me a big hug, then rolled over and went to sleep. I never even had to sit up! He woke up again at 4am to nurse (the usual) and was up for the day at 6am, but again, he softened the blow. I woke up to the sound of demonic giggles followed by a full body hug that would have been a tackle if I weren't already laying down. Really, what mother could resist that?
