Isabel loves "pai pai"

I am not sure if every child is like this, but I was like this as a kid.  Whenever I can't sleep, I would ask my mom to "pai pai" me - which is pat me on the back rhythmically until I fall asleep.  It gave me a sense of comfort and safety as the rhythm help me sleep and the contact ensures me that mommy is always there.

I started "pai pai" Isabel a year ago.  She love it and now it's kind of a routine at night and sometimes during naps. She like it pretty light and the funny thing is as I do it for her, it actually help me sleep too as it's so repetitive.
