A little frazzled (she's not well enough to go to daycare, but not deathly ill either, which means lots of messes!). She just spilled chocolate milk all over everywhere. A few quiet moments went by and I went to check on her. She fell asleep on the couch watching Dora the Explorer. And I just looked at her, her little chest rising and falling, her face angelic and sweet in sleep, and... Breathless.Joely Sue Burkharthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17895058332587825648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343238.post-1144937701006341472006-04-13T10:15:00.000-04:002006-04-13T10:15:00.000-04:00My husband and my baby boy both make me breathless...My husband and my baby boy both make me breathless in their own ways.
