I think my little man had to have been dreaming while looking this peaceful, not to mention the fact that he is a kid with no responsibilities, gets to rest whenever he feels like it and is generally adorable no matter what angle you happen to glance at him from. I would think that happy children should simply be happily dreaming all the time, but then again, I know from my 5-year-old that Ursula can make for some scary dreams.
And then there’s me. What am I dreaming of at the moment? Well, for some sleep, actually. Both my children are vomiting tonight, and this handsome babe above also has a double ear infection, outer ear infection, perforated ear drum, high fever and a cold to ice the cake. My poor babies! And so here I am after midnight, waiting for the next desperate call for the trash-can-wielding mommy to come to the rescue, change the sheets for the 33rd time and make it all better for the next 23 minutes before we start all over. And so I wonder if attempting sleep at this point is even sane? I can only imagine that the wake-up calls will then become much harder to hear and well, I just don’t wake up happy sometimes. =) But this sweet sleep captured above sure looks nice to me. ;)
I had a session cancel over the weekend, so instead, you may find my little people gracing the blog over the next few days! Saying a prayer for my little people tonight. I hear one of them so I best run. Hope you’re dreaming much more peacefully than we are!
