For Oscar

You've woken up in the middle of the night a few times over the last week. You don't cry, you just make that sound you've been making a lot lately---the one where you put your hands to your lips--- or you just babble to your heart's delight. I want to come in and watch you but I'm afraid if you see me then you really might start crying. So I listen and imagine what you're doing in there at 3 a.m.

What I really want to do is crawl in your crib and curl up next to you but we both know you don't have the patience for that.

I know what you mean. I want to video tape my kids while they sleep so I can see all the cuteness I am missing.

Awww, these are the moments to capture in your heart. My little one is 6 now but I still love to listen to her sleep. :)
