Baby Blue

I had lousy week last week. I had crowns done on two of my teeth the week before and they were bothering me a bit. Then last week they really started bothering me and I had a terrible tooth ache. I had to take the pain meds from my c-section just to cope, then those meds started making me sick. Sam ended up taking two days off of work to take care of Delight for me. He was great and helped me out so much. He even did a job that he's not comfortable with, giving Delight a bath. I appreciate him so much. After several trips to the dentist, I finally had them do a root canal on one of the teeth and things are much better now. Praise God! My mouth is still bothering me a bit, but it's nothing like it was.
Sam took the picture of Delight below. I was feeling crappy and laying on the couch and I leaned her up against my arm. Her eyes look so beautiful in this picture. She is such a joy. I was giving her a bath tonight and she's laying there grinning up at me while she chews on her hand and I couldn't help but saying out loud, being a mom is wonderful. I don't think that all the time, but all the times she smiles and giggles at me make up for all the hard times.

How could you not love a face like that?
