She lies beside me, slumbering peacefully in her co-sleeper, less than two feet away, but not close enough for me. Her lips turn into a little smile, her eyes flicker open - is she awake? Nope, just dreaming. I pick her up, not wanting to wake her, but unable to resist giving her one last goodnight kiss. I nuzzle my face into her neck, drinking in the fresh smell of a baby, this baby, my baby. Oh boy, this one is going to be so spoiled. I just can't help myself.
