I pride myself in being able to soothe almost any crying baby and get just about any tired baby to fall asleep. (I've had years of practice with my own colicky, fussy babies.) This afternoon I employed my "magic baby touch" again and got another baby to sleep. At dinner I bragged about my talent to my family and said, "I have a magic touch with babies. Today I got Addie to sleep."
Sara piped up and said, "Yes, Mom, you can bore anyone."

Apparently Ethan thought you were the most entertaining person alive!
Part of it might be shutting out all extraneous stimuli and giving that monotonous calming impact that is so necessary; but let's be honest, a lot of it is patience and confidence. You definitely have a gift!
