Beautiful

Kaelin has been a mess of tantrums all day long. Impossible to please. After throwing a monstrous tantrum tonight, I dragged her off to her room determined to put her to bed. Within minutes of getting her in the rocking chair, she was crashed. I knew she was tired and so glad I forced her into sleep. I got to thinking about how she is still up so many times a night and how discouraging that is to me. But then I saw something absolutely beautiful- my little girl in all her perfection, looking like an absolute angel. So I guess my silver lining in all her sleep problems is that I get to witness something as beautiful as a sleeping angel multiple times a night. Ahhhh, small things like that keep me going when it gets unbearable.
