One little blink, just one blink more…
You woke with fright, shaken to the core.
The world is dark at 2am.
But I’m your mommy; here I am.
Your cries pierce the air, are in earnest this night.
No little pats to calm down; this time needs the light.
Little hands knead, your eyes peek around.
Back and forth we rock, barely making a sound.
All the way this time, so you don’t start.
Be still, little one, you are my heart.
One little blink, just one blink more…
Before I lay you back in your crib and slip out the door.
Not that I wish 2am wake-ups and crying on anyone, but goodness isn’t this a sweet way to process that? Just lovely!
@thehhhousewife Thank you, Claire!
Oh my goodness, she is so darn cute. And this? This was beautiful.
@BeautifulSpitUp Thank you, Eve! I can’t believe how big she’s getting. Where’s my baby girl going? 🙁
Oh! Look at that beautiful little lady! My son will have a crush! Happy Monday!
