my baby bucket continues to amaze us. last night she slept from 10 to 12 (during which time her parents managed to watch two, super sleezy episodes of grey's anatomy and indulge, in pre-bucket tv splendor), then nursed at 12 and managed to sleep until....are you ready...seven o'clock when jeff's alarm went off! what a woman! then she nursed again then slept til ten, allowing her mama time to shower, tidy the house and get ready for her friend's a.m. visit. i was then able to brag about her to my pregnant, blogging muse friend, nici, who could then get even more excited about her bug's arrival. after lattes and delicious treats she brought from the break bakery, i was able to reflect and nurse while listening to prince sing joni's "a piece of you." listening to this song, these words i've thought about oh so many times over the past decade, looking out at the beautiful, blustery, september day, watching my bucket sleep on my breast, feeling so safe and happy and warm in my home....it's all too much sometimes. too much goodness. too much love.
