A Single Night of Co-Sleeping

I don't know what it is, but sometimes Leah will wake up at night crying, screaming even! I go in and she doesnt even want to touched, let alone picked up. It kind of scares me; i dont know whats wrong and shes hysterically crying, and wont let me do anything! I actually had to leave (which brought on even worse crying) and came back in less than a minute later. THEN she was ready to be picked up. She seemed almost scared. I just hope this isnt night terrors! She pointed to the door so i went out and she said "Dada?" in her sweet, groggy, sobbing voice. I brought her into Daddy and he was so happy that she asked for him. Daddy decided to sleep on the couch so Leah could sleep with me. (He gets up really early for work) I think she was probably up for an hour and a half just sitting around, laying down-wide awake, or playing with my hair. Co-Sleeping is something shes not used to (mostly because she cant sleep, and would rather play), but she eventually backed up into me, grabbed my arms and wrapped it around her.

My heart melted then.

I passed out. Im guessing shortly after she did too. But i woke up at one point and she had a handful of my hair, tangled into her hand. Silly girl!
She woke up at 7:30 am, which im not used to since she usually waked up at 8:30. Plus i was really hoping she would sleep in since she was up for a while!
I have to work this evening, so im pretty sad i cant take her to the park again.
We'll have to go before work! :)
