But It Still Hurts....

Ruby LOVES her daddy. Really we all do- but Ruby has grown REALLY attached. It has come to the point where she won't let me put her to bed. She will not sleep unless her daddy does it. So I let him- except when he isn't here- the dreaded NAP TIME....
She cries every day when nap time comes around.
The conversation goes like this-
R: 'But I don't want to go to bed'
Me: 'It is time to have a nap Ruby'
R: 'I want daddy to put me to bed' -crying-
Me:'Daddy isn't here to put you to bed- mommy puts you to bed during nap time...'
R: -crying-
Me:'Ruby we don't need to cry it is bed time and daddy isn't here'
R: 'I know mommy, but it still hurts'
And her little face looks like this-
(Yes I went and grabbed the camera quickly- just so I could capture the moment and show Justin how much his little girl-o loves him. It seems cruel and unusual- but it was for good reason...we hugged it out after...)

See you in the movies

Justin is upstairs singing to Ruby right now (her favorites include snowman, insy-winsy spider, eieio, and twinkle star) trying to get her to sleep and as I listen to him through the baby monitor it reminded me of my dad- every night after family prayer as we were saying good night he always said (and still does when we are home) 'See you in the movies' (meaning see you in your dreams)
I like it
Its a good memory
I say it to Ruby now
I hope that one day she will say it to her kids too....
