It's 3AM. I'm going to need to heat up my coffee, I think. I'm just not ready or willing to stop studying yet. Moms sacrifice for their children. I've not sacrificed very much, in my opinion - so sacrificing some sleep is okay with me.
I clicked my way to this blog -

Dear Daughter,
You are 4 months, 1 week, and 1 day old.
Here are some things that you're doing, not doing, refuse to do, and demand to have done:
~ You have the cutest dimple on your right cheek which is
hard to miss when you smile your beautiful smile -
~ You like to suck on the
index and middle finger of your right hand -
~ You
do not like to be held in the cradle position unless you're being fed -
~ You like to sleep on your
right side while refusing to ever sleep on your back -
~ You cannot stand to have a cover/blanket over your legs and/or feet,
ever -
~ You stiffen your legs all the way out while I
try to change your diaper -
~ You bounce your left leg up and down when you're
excited while sitting in your bouncer -
~ You have a
mildly shocked expression every time I lower you into your lukewarm bath water -
~ You have just started to
raise your upper body up with your arms while in a crawling position -
~ You scream. You seem to enjoy
exercising your vocal chords -
~ You
love your stuffed frog. You also like your squeaky stuffed birds. You
chew on them often -
~ You are beginning to
stare at my food. You
smile every time I take a bite -
~ You stare at your latest dirty/wet diaper as I roll it up and put it in the Diaper Genie.
You seem proud -
~ You love to
stretch out on my lap after you've eaten.
You practically hang upside down! -
I love you, my beautiful-sweet-smart-curious daughter!
Back to studying!
