As I’m drifting off to sleep, I can’t help but to hear the sound of my baby and her daddy having the sweetest conversation.
It is a chorus of soft “aowww”s and “ooooowaaaaaohhh”s and squeals and even a few “I love you”s (or, in baby language, “ehhh ehhh ehhh”….but, I swear, she says it with the exact intonation of “I love you”.  I know, she’s a genius).
And even though I could really use the sleep,
I can’t force myself to tune them out.
I know that her gurgles and oooooooohs will soon turn into words, and we will never again have these most precious cooing conversations with our  tiny, growing person.  I tell myself to never forget these little, amazing moments.
I truly hope that I will not.
But, for now, they are my lullaby,
the sweetest song one could ever hear.
