Twinkle Twinkle Little Star

So I know I should be putting Sadie down for naps and for bed without my assistance to ecourage self-soothing. But I can't. I mean I don't. Or won't. I can't have my peanut crying. So we have a system now. I can get her to sleep in four minutes. From the time I pick her up (when she starts rubbing her eyes), I sing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star loudly (and I mean pretty loud), over and over, and sway back and forth and slightly up and down. And she is out. Then I put her down or I let her sleep on me.That is my favorite part of the day when she takes a nap on me. When the day comes to an end and I reflect back I feel like I missed out, if I was too busy with life to let her sleep on me. She prob falls asleep so she doesn't have to listen to me sing. Hahahah. Oh well, my child won't be a self-soother!
