"Waaaaaa! Whaaaaaaaaaaaa! Mommy...Mommy." My eyes pop open and I wait. I am secretly hoping she will fall back to sleep.
"Mommy! Ma ma ma ma...Mommy!"
I drag my self out of bed and go to comfort her. When I get to her room, she is standing up, reaching out for me. I comfort her and tell her it is "Night Night" time and she needs to go back to sleep. She clings to my arms, trying to grab my neck so she can pull herself up. Then she starts saying something behind the passy in her mouth. It sounds like, "ah choo, ah choo." I pull out the passy and ask her what she is trying to say.
"I hold choo," she says.
"You want to hold me?" I ask.
"Uh huh, I hold choo." How can I say no? She is using sentences and wanting me to hold her in the middle of the night? Then she says, "I beh, I choo beh."
"Do you want to get into my bed?" I asked. She shakes her head yes, and off we go to my bed for the rest of the night.

It's okay...I do too ;o) I hate it when they cry! We did the ferberizing method also...works like a charm. But there's some nights I just let her sleep in my arms! They aren't babies forever!

Oh lord, this sounds just like my house! I put Tess in her crib every night and she materializes next to me every morning.
The best is when she looks at me with her big sad eyes and says, "Mommy...nur me"
Sorry kiddo, I let you have it for almost two years, you are cut off!!! :)- 1:17 PM

It would have been impossible for any mommy to walk away from that sweet request. Love her up while you can. She won't ask to sleep with you forever!
