Words are stuck
Crawling
Through the fog
In my brain
Thoughts swirl
Bumping
Into each other
Vying for attention 
Light approaches
Burning away the fog
Sorting through my thoughts-
Perhaps I should close
My heavy eyes
Lay my head back
And bask in the warmth
Of the Light on my face 

Watching sweet Emi fall asleep is a gift. That transition from active to hungry to sleepy-we all know it well. 

She doesn’t want to miss a thing!

I’ve used that phrase many times. And it’s true! Babies will sometimes work so hard to stay awake. Truthfully, we adults often do the same. Instead of listening to our tired bodies and minds, we keep pushing. 

It’s ok. Lay your head back. Close your eyes. The world won’t stop spinning. 😉
