How Does She Know?!

Olivia is overall a very cuddly baby. If you have the priviledge and blessing of being around her and hold her, she will hug you, kiss your face and try to eat your hair. I think that's just super cute. But what I think is even cuter is that she knows *exactly* when her mainha (mommy in Portuguese) needs some luving.
The past couple of weeks have been very difficult for me, but there were three very specific days that were the toughest. On all of these days I arrived home from work just devastated because of some bad news I had during that day, and as soon as I got home Olivia was the ultimate cuddly bug.
She wouldn't want anything else but for me to hold her, and she would rest her head peacefully and quietly on my shoulder and just stay there for ever. It felt so. good.! How does she know!?
How does she know when I need a hug more than anything else that anyone can give? How does she know that her head on my shoulder makes my sadness and my worries slip away for a delicious moment and makes me so happy? She is an angel from God and I am so grateful for those moments, so grateful for having a baby that knows that her mainha loves her and that makes her feel so loved too!

I love her so endlessly!
