That when I die, if my best memories come rushing at me (like the final scene in "American Beauty" is I guess how I imagine it), one of them will be the memory of feeding a baby to sleep at bedtime. The ten minutes of quiet solitude I (sometimes) get at bedtime with Lila are the best ten minutes of my day. Something about being able to put a baby at peace like that is, well, it is awesome. Truly.
(well worth plastic surgery someday)
