You thought I was going to say NAPTIME, didn't you?
Well, it's not.
There are some days, although few & far between, when I wake up before the kids.
But on those days, I get to relish a very wonderful moment.... when I watch Flynn swaggering down the hall, straight from a deep sleep. Rubbing her eyes like a sleepy bear cub, she can barely see past the blinding light to find me. And when she does, she mutters a grovely, "Up Mom" as she motions for me to take her into my lap. I love to hold her & know that it might be the only time during the day that she'll sit still - or sit at all - on my lap.
Gabe is the same story. Although he's bound to sleep longer, he'll let me hold him & he'll lay his head on my shoulder.... I can see his binky bobbing up & down.
The moments are brief, but oh so precious.
