One of the most gratifying moments in the world is watching your baby go to sleep, especially yesterday evening.

One amusing thought about having kids is they are proof of the vastly different possibilities of combined looks of you and your spouse. We were not at all prepared for what our first daughter would look like--she caught us and everyone off-guard. For the second, we thought he had an idea, but it is amazing because she is a completely different "template." She looks like us but in a different way.

Now, we are waiting as they develop their personalities to see what traits they possess.
