Night night


And so the stories have been read and the songs have been sung and my babies are sleeping in their cosy beds. Their breathing has become regular and steady, their perfect faces are relaxed as they dream the dreams of the innocent and they are at total peace with the world. I look at their little faces and imagine what is being processed in their minds, what they have made of the events of the day, which faces they will remember, which voices will they be hearing. I give their impossibly soft cheeks a gentle kiss, careful to resist the urge to pick them up for one last snuggle, and wish them a safe and beautiful night sleep. Thank you babies for another gorgeous day. Night night. x
