almost everyone i know who is married, either just had a baby or is pregnant. i am not, nor do we plan to be for some time. (okay a year or two) but still, everyone has a baby!! it's nice to know i still got it!! let me splain. my brother-in-law and his wife and two daughters came over for sunday dinner. their new baby was crying for a little while and i wanted to try my hand at trying to calm her. it worked!! i totally calmed and comforted just like a well-seasoned mother!! i tried swinging and singing. but she didn't like it. however, she did love the shhhhooshing and swaying. i held her for a very long time and she slept soundly when i figured out what she liked. i felt very good about myself, especially when my sister-in-law said she had been really fussy for about the past week and a half! wow! i'm amazing!!
the amazing cherisse!
she can calm and comfort even the fussiest child!!
just kidding! it is nice to know though, that i can still calm and comfort a new baby after a year and a half. it comforted me too, not to mention made my day!

I totally know what you mean. I have done that a few times in life when its been a while since I held a small infant and wondered if I still "had it" and every time it works. Its totally like riding a bike. You never forget how!
