My beautiful baby girl sleeps next to me on the bed. I wonder how one so small can take up so much of a double bed. She is beauty and innocence. A cherub plucked from the sky to grace my life for a while. She stirs at an imagined noise and turns away from me. I have not known love like this before. Something between a mother and her daughter. In a busy life she brightens my day briefly with a smile or a coo but all too often I do not take the time to sit and watch and let her angel light fill my heart. I must take this time more often.
