My little Taylor

So Taylor woke up this morning at 3:00 (she's teething so the nights are sometimes difficult for her) i tried everything to get her to go back to sleep but nothing worked. So i finally decided to give her some medicine to ease the pain, then i went back to the living room with her and rocked her until she finally fell asleep again (which ended up being 5A.M.). As i was taking her back to bed i was looking at her sleeping so peacefully and the thoughts just started running through my mind. She is 15 months old now and in about 4 1/2 short months a baby brother will be joining our family! I think sometimes with a new baby coming and the fact that she is growing and becoming more independent i sometimes forget that she is still so little. But this morning as i was watching her sleep i realized that she is still a baby, she still depends on me for a lot. And although i am excited for this new addition to our family in July i found myself thinking 'what are we doing?' 'Are we going to be able to do this?' 'Is Taylor going to feel neglected?' These are the thoughts that have occupied my mind today. I know we're all going to be just fine. I just want Taylor to always know how much we love her and how grateful we are for her in our lives, she's is such a joy and a blessing to us!
