Janice finishes eating then gets a cloth and cleans up Valeria. She gets her out of the high chair and sets her on the floor.

[valeria]

"Yesh pwease mommy" i smile as i get up and follow you to go upstairs to give me a bath as i suck on my thumb.

[robehouse]

Janice takes Valeria to the bathroom. She fills the tub with warm water and bubble bath powder.

[valeria]

"Okay mommy" i still suck my thumb as i play with the toys in the tub while splashing around alittle.

[robehouse]

Janice smiles as she watches Valeria play in the tub. after about ten minutes she starts washing her.

[valeria]

"Yeah i had lots of fun today with you" i smile and kissed your cheek as you wash me.

[robehouse]

"That's good. I want you to have fun. I had fun too."

[valeria]

"Yeahh!" I smile as i yawn a bit while i wait for my milk and night time story.

[robehouse]

Janice carried Valeria down to the kitchen and got a bottle of milk. She warmed it and then took Valeria to the living room. Janice picked out a book to read and sat down in her chair. She held Valeria on her lap and gave her the bottle. Janice opened the book and started reading.

[valeria]

I drink my bottle as i curl up in your arms while listening to you read the book i start to get sleepy.

[robehouse]

Janice keeps holding Valeria as she reads, watching her get sleepy.

[valeria]

I soon fall right to sleep in your arms as the bottle was now empty.

[robehouse]

Janice carries Valeria to the nursery and lays her in the crib. She tucks her in and pulls the side up. Janice starts the mobile and turns down the light before leaving the nursery.

[valeria]

I sleep for awhile until i have a nightmare and woke up crying as i stood up in my crib.

[robehouse]

Janice hears Valeria over the baby monitor. She gets up and comes to the nursery. She gets Valeria out of the crib and gives her a hug.

[valeria]

"I had a bad dweam mommy" i held on to you as i try to calm dowm.

[robehouse]

Janice holds Valeria and pats her bottom.

[valeria]

"I know mommy" i hug you as i stay curled up in your arms as my head rests on your chest.

[robehouse]

Janice sits down in a chair and rubs Valeria's back as she rocks her.

[valeria]

"I wanna slweep in my bed l..like a big girl" i yawn as i close my eyes.

[robehouse]

"Alright, you can sleep in your bed."

[valeria]

I stay awake for a bit as i eventually fall right back to sleep as i cuddle my toy and suck on my paci.

[robehouse]

Janice smiles at how cute Valeria looks asleep. She stays in her chair through the night in case Valeria wakes up, eventually falling asleep.

[valeria]

I sleep fine the rest of the night as i wake up the next morning as i suck on my thumb not knowing where my paci was.

[robehouse]

Janice wakes up and hears Valeria sucking her thumb. She stands up and comes over to the crib. Janice smiles at Valeria.
