"Nah Nah Nah Nah, Nah Nah Nah Nah, Nay Nay Nay, Goodnight!"

I'm happy to report, with little effort on our part, my daughter - in one day - has fallen asleep on her own twice - once for her nap and again that night. Sure there was some crying. Sure we wanted to go back in. But in less than 30 minutes from when we took her up, she was asleep. Not nearly as hard as we though it'd be.

I know, there's no guarantee that it'll work again today, or as time goes on - but we sure hope it does, and we'll do what we can to help her make that happen.

In the process, I rediscovered, as I often do, that my wife is amazing. She was scared to do it, but did it anyway, and did it well. And I rediscoverd, as I often do, that my daughter is amazing. Everything is new and different - and she relishes that. Why don't adults?

I'm so proud of them!

WooHoo... she's sleeping on her own!
