Babysitting in Washington, D.C.


She's sleeping!
Rob and I drove down to Washington, D.C. yesterday. Jenn and José are involved in a conference here this week. We have adjoining rooms in a large hotel in Arlington. We're here to spend some quality time with mom and dad, but mainly to do some childcare today.

What a wonderful little girl. Just nine months old now. Growing so fast, learning so much. Wow!

However, caring for her takes me back a number a years to when I was a young father. That's when I learned to pray. "Please God, in your mercy, please let this baby go to sleep, just for awhile."

Finally walked her up and down the halls in this hotel in her stroller. That knocked her out.

See many of you Sunday!
