I am amazed that everyone in my house has the ability to sleep. Sleep has been one of those things that evades me even when I am bone tired. Like today. But...I will say, the gift is being able to watch and listen to both my kids sleep. To watch them sleep like the angels they are. Jack....you are a pill to put to bed. Tonight, you decided to count and yell every number. Then like a magic spell, you fall asleep....drop asleep, I should say. You are sound sleeper like you Daddy. I can put laundry away in your room, cover you up and pick up the books you decided to read after Daddy and I told you to go to sleep. Lulu..you are a light sleeper like your Momma. I tip toe around and have learned not to come into your room, as you wake at the slightest movement. One night at about 3 am, I turned your light off thinking it would make you sleep better. You bolted up straight, scared me to death and asked me why I was turning off your light. No worries though..I watch you sleep from a far. Oddly, as little as you are, you HATE covers on you. No matter how cold it is. I laugh when I see you on top of all your covers, while Jack hibernates in his blankets. I will be brave and take pictures of both of you sleeping next weekend.
Sigh....why do they have to get big?
