Afternoon Coffee and Knitting

Three weeks ago today I met our little Elsie, and while I hoped and dreamed there would be hours of mother/daughter time spent over coffee, I didn’t think it would start when she was just three weeks old. Me and the twins both needed naps this afternoon. I fed them both, put them down and got the house in order so I could get some shut eye as well. Then I heard her start crying, and since she’s having a bit of a challenge gaining weight, I decided to put off nap time for both of us, let her brother sleep and have some mother/daughter time over coffee and breast milk, while working on a few rows of her little dress.

These little moments make the sleepless nights worth it.
