I have not been able to go to sleep tonight but now may with the tender picture I have in my mind of 5-month-old Emma being comforted and held by both her daddy and Grandpa Chuck. She awoke and could not be consoled until she drank half her bottle. Now Emma is asleep again, perhaps for longer than usual for her mommy. (Last night Emma kept her mommy awake from midnight to 2 am.)
I am grateful that both these men in my life will take care of a baby in the middle of the night (sometimes). I don't think my father ever tried with me; I know he did not offer with any of our babies as their grandfather. I am glad Chuck is such a nurturing grandpa.
And here is a picture of him playing with recuperating Avery yesterday.
