Parenthood is Easy

Karis finally fell asleep and I was going to get to take a shower for the first time in days.  As I stepped one foot into the shower, what did I hear?  "Waah!  Waah!"  Karis was fine; she just wanted to be held.  I was SO annoyed.  The second I scooped her up she was silenced.  I held her close to my chest and rocked her for about 3 minutes before she was out again.  It honestly felt really good.  As soon as my baby knew that Mommy had her, she was ok.  She felt safe and secure.  I could have put her back in bed and continued what I was doing.  Instead, I sat on the couch holding my perfect sleeping baby.  I looked at her and thought, "This is when parenthood is easy."
