It's amazing...

It's amazing that when you are just downright exhausted, she knows that you need a break.

It's amazing that just when you consider going back to teach fulltime rather than being home with your own daughter, she takes a 3.5 hour nap and wakes up an entirely new child.

It's amazing that at about 6:30 you are usually thinking, "Man, is it bedtime yet?", but tonight you were thinking, "Man, it's already bedtime."

It's amazing how one tooth can cause your child to become the devil.

It's amazing how .8ml of baby tylenol can make your child become an angel.

It's amazing that just when you are at your wit's end and have had enough, she gives you the most gentle, loving hug and kiss.

It's amazing how one sweet little "hi" during bathtime can make all the horrific moments during the day disappear.

It's amazing how the sweet sounds of a giggle can make you forget the shrill sounds of her scream only moments prior.

It's amazing how much you can love one human being...it's just amazing.
