Second child

This morning my daughter ate, burped, and tried to fall asleep. I walked her slowly into the nice, quiet, dark bedroom, and laid her down on the nice bed. I lay down beside her, quiet and still, breathing slowly and soothingly.

She promptly woke up.

I went back to the living room, where The Man and The Boy were playing. There was chatting. Music. Movement. Light. Cats meowing. General nuttiness.

She went to sleep.

Crazy.
