1:40 Beatrice is playing pretend camping in the piano room. She and I hauled water from the nearby creek, she boiled it for tea and made steamed cupcakes. I got the camera out and she was annoyed, exclaiming "You already have enough pictures of me!" She's right, but she had the cutest braid buns in for dance this morning which I just had to take a shot of. Of course you can't see them, but you can see this:
and this:
1:50 She sits in my lap and starts an old ritual we haven't done in a while, which is gently touching foreheads,
then noses,
then lips, but the camera was too slow for our kiss!
1:50 I start rubbing her back. She tells me I'm not doing it right and that I should scratch with my nails, so I do, and I feel her body becoming very heavy. I mouth to Anthony that I think she may fall asleep in my arms, which would shock me because I can't remember the last time that happened.
1:55 Fast asleep. This may very well be the last time this happens. Glad the camera and Anthony were nearby.

How incredibly sweet. I remember the last afternoon nap Ben took and thinking how it might be his last...sigh. And just today I let him ride off on his bike for the first time to his grandmother's house without any supervision, and he was so proud (little did he know I watched him from the driveway and his grandmother did the same, so he was supervised the whole time). See you Tuesday! ~Nicole
