ah, my little girl is growing up!... tonite i sat on e comfy chair at granny's, relaxing after a long day out.

she promptly came over and sat 'horsy-style' on my one leg. after a little while, she lay her head back against my chest, and just relaxed her whole body against me.  it was so sweet to have her there awhile...too tired to feed herself, so nibbling bits of chicken from my fingers, while leaning back listening to conversation...every now and then opening her mouth like a little bird, for another morsel of food.

when i got home and put her to bed, she drifted off almost immediately...completely exhausted by her busy day.

as i later stood washing a pile of dirty dishes, i realised that this was the 1st time, in a long long time, that she'd climbed up to my lap to just "be".

it was so nice to have her close like that... a really pleasant memory already...and just hoping there'll be more :)

and ky? oh i wish he'd still come sit on my lap sometimes!... perhaps it's something i shd help bring about ;)
