conundrum

I don't know whether or not my post is appropriately titled, but I love that word.

Baby Scarlett was asleep from 11:30pm-1:30am. Apparently that's enough sleep. At 4:13 she is finally now asleep again.

I ought to sleep too.

She's just sleeping in the cutest snuggle with me, forehead on my chest, head resting in the nook between my shoulder and elbow, balled up fists clasping each other, short soft legs curled up against my tummy.

It is so sweet it's making my chest ache.

I am sooo sleepy but don't want to shut my eyes. I'm afraid when I open them I will be at her high school graduation.

Sweet sleeping Angel, be my curious little bear forever. Don't grow older. Im begging you.
