Waiting for my daughter to fall asleep. It’s a long drawn out process following the daily ritual where she gets out of bed within 2 minutes saying “I can’t sleep!”
Then I have to bring her back to bed, sing another lullaby, and pray to whatever sleep deity that will listen that she will stay put this time.
Today appears to be a good day, I can hear her slurping from her water bottle but she’s staying put. Hopefully she’ll be out in another 5 minutes. I wonder who I have to thank this time, Hypnos?
