Courage

Brave is not the word that you would use for me tonight. Out of town for a conference, hundreds of miles away from my baby. Can I trust her Daddy to wake up and feed her? Can I? I'm having cookies and beer in the Holiday Inn and biting my nails. A few people close to me have mentioned that I will have to trust my husband to parent this child, and to trust her to be able to wake and ask for food. But, at seven months? Seven wee months? Why is there no trusty equivalent of Dr. Spock for how to feed a not so hungry baby?
