From Afar
Bette and Anna stayed in the chair until Bette just had to move as her back was beginning to get stiff from the way she was holding Anna. With that movement Anna woke and began to whimper again. Feeling her, Bette realizes that she is not too warm and thinks maybe now she can feed Anna her bottle. Looking up at the clock she is only 45 minutes behind schedule. Hopefully this isnt earth shattering. Once again picking up the bottle, Bette feeds Anna. This time she seems much more receptive and finishes nearly three quarters of the bottle before she starts playing with her tongue and gets the formula all down the front of her pajamas.
Seeing the mess they are making Bette decides that its bath time. What a new adventure for Bette. Leaving Anna for the moment in her bassinette, Bette goes to the bathroom and pulls out the baby bath. Thinking that she really has never done this but how hard can it be, Bette begins to fill it with enough water to give Anna a proper bath. Going back into the bedroom and retrieving Anna, Bette takes off all her clothes and diaper and slowly places Anna in the water. The moment Annas feet hit the water she is ready to play. Kicking and beating her hand on the surface of the water, Anna creates a series of splashes that are effective in getting Bette, the counter and the floor entirely soaked. Well I see youre going to be a natural in the pool hey little girl. Bette is struggling to give Anna a bath with the remaining water and hold Annas hands as she continually splashes and slaps the water with her hands. Bette thinks well at least someone is happy as now Anna is all smiles as she continues to play with the water. Bette quickly arrives at the point were she feels Anna is as clean as she can get her considering the amount of water left in the tub or not in the tub. Pulling her now clean little girl out, Bette quickly dries her off and carries her into the bedroom looking for her jamies. Anna is being quite the good girl now as Bette dresses her and lays her down for the night. Giving her a little kiss on the forehead I love you honey Bette says as she leaves Anna.
Bettes mission is to try to repair the bathroom, grabbing the largest towels she can find she immediately begins mopping up the floor, counter and walls, as it seems Anna didnt miss much with her splashing. Bette isnt even close to completing this task, when she hears Anna once again beginning to cry. This time its a little cry that tugs at Bettes heart. Thinking she will finish the cleanup latter, Bette goes to Anna and picks her up. Once Anna is safely in Bettes arms she immediately nestles close.
Well Anna are you trying to tell me you want me to hold you for a while? Bette asks as she moves into the living room. Sitting down on the couch holding Anna, Bette is filled with a feeling of warmth for this little girl. My you must not be feeling very well. Let me just hold you for a while. Bette whispers into Annas ear as she positions a couple cushions in the corner of the couch and props herself into them bringing her legs up off the floor so she can stretch out in the process. Laying Anna on her chest, Bette begins to softly sing to the little girl who is rapidly falling to sleep. Seeing that Anna is asleep Bette thinks Ill just close my eyes for a moment holding her. Savoring the feeling of having Anna this close.

Beautiful chapter. In the beginning we don’t know why baby cries but we learn very fast. Bette is good to this and I love this chapter.
I’ve melted in a pool of mush again…SO sweet…I’ll be practicing;P…my lil’ happy dance can wait as long as you keep sending mushy and heartfelt chapters our way=D You DA BOMB Jwet!!
It’s good to see Bette in ‘mother mode’.
Does she consider herself Anna’s other mother? Does Tina??
i knew bette could be a great mom. great update, thanks.
Hey great chapter. I sense a discussion coming up between Bette and Tina about Anna and how much in her life Bette is going to be.
*sigh* *sweetness*
I’m not a parent myself, but my friends who are tell me how they “forget” any bad moments once their babies falls asleep in their arms. *Sweet*
Your painting of Bette’s experience leaves me smiling.
Thanks for starting my day so beautifully.
Wow, this was just amazing. I am glad you showed us this time with Bette and Anna. Loved it!
Jwet this beautiful story continues to please. I love the interaction with Bette and Anna…makes my biological clock tick louder. Our best to you and your inspiration.
Jwet…i can’t tell you how much i love this story….You have really captured the new and amazing connection that exists between a mother and her daughter…..Is that what Bette considers herself to be Anna’s other mom?? The way you portray it i’ll go with…..HELL YES (could be wrong though..hehe)!……Thank you for another truly wonderful chapter:)
Oh Bette is so cute with the baby and love what she and the baby have. Post soon, thank you!
That was cute! loved it as usual.
Had to comment before I went off to work. This was great. Totally loving the parental Bette. Must continue.
P.S Why must it snow in April?
Jwet that was spot on, i have a big smile on my face.
Bette has passed with flying colours she’s a natural with Anna.
Thanks for sharing.
Jwet thank you for this post. I truly enjoyed it. I remember being all panicky when babysitting haha and u’ve pictured everything perfectly here. Great chapter Jwet!
Bette seems to be quite instinctive when it comes to look after a baby…………this story is so cute
Bette is so cute with the baby. Just a question does Tina wants Anna to be in Bette s live or does she want bette to be the mother of Anna?
Maybe Anna’s all colicky because Bette didn’t burp her after the bottle. Well done…even if you didn’t put B&T in the big people bed. (yes they’d be closer in the crib, but it’d be less safe for Anna.)
cute chapter!! btw, although i’m not robbeedee, will you also give me a few chapters ahead if i were to email you?
wow.that was really really cute. i totally love the way Bette is with Anna. So f***ing cute ! keep on writing, it’s great
This chapter was sweet, and adorable. I’m happy for Bette that she was able to spend that time alone with the baby…and it reminded me why I chose to not have children! :)
Yep, I had the same experience while babysitting, but I wigged out and called the parents. Kudos to Bette for hangin’ in there. She’s going to be a great mommy.
Well done, as always Jwet.
Nice to see this side of B…
Hey Jwet I know I haven’t comment in a while , you still have me for you Beautiful Amazing Story so keep going we love it Please post soon.
Love Bette in the Mom mode. Hey, does Tina want Bette, or doest she want another Mom for Anna, Bette and the babie were cute in the bath. thanks
First, great chapter and so real. Babies are such hard work and it is great to see someone is writing about the real life experiences. I love seeing Bette,CAC director feeling out of control some with a little baby.
Now for you question. I have 2 dogs, and 2 cats. If you want to know more about me please email me at petsrn@earthlink.net. I will email you back.:-)
