In my walk to carry her back to her room I ran into the furniture, then the wall, then her door....I looked down into her beautiful sleeping face in the glow from the night light...and thought:

She wouldn't have a mommy's bed to crawl into if she got scared. And she wouldn't have a mommy who runs her into the walls when carrying her in the dark either! I smiled and kissed her beautiful little face, and I thanked God for giving us Mia. We are blessed to call her our daughter.
