As I stumbled out of bed this morning on my way to the kitchen for my first cup of brew, this sweet slumber scene caught me by surprise.
She must have woken up early, and since we (Scott and I) are in late-night-no-routine-lazy-holiday mode we have been sleeping later, so she nestled into the couch and fell back asleep.
Capturing a moment like this is increasingly rare because she is usually functioning at full-tilt, 95 mph, live action animation with full commentary. In this moment I see her small hand and her beautiful face in their full innocence and child-like repose. Moments like these make me wish I could freeze time and savor them for a while. Maybe even a little longer.
*Can you name that Seinfeld reference? (What would life be like without Seinfeld references?)
What a darling picture and great moment you captured here!
ReplyDeleteI am ashamed to say I didn't catch the Seinfeld reference (what the?) and had to Google it. I thought I knew every episode in a quotable way, but apparently I don't dang it.
Love the pic and I have to admit I don't get the reference, either. I thought I knew them all. I am guessing live action animation with full commentary, but not sure.
ReplyDeleteSorry, didn't mean to be so cryptic! The Seinfeld reference has to do with the title...
ReplyDelete:)
Such a sweet pic! Sorry to see (twitter) that your daughter's not feeling well. Have fun watching Parent Trap!
ReplyDeleteIs it when George & Jerry are switching the answering machine tape? I'll hang my head in shame if I'm wrong.
ReplyDeleteI love peeking on my kids when they're asleep. It's childhood at its best :)
Crystal I am SO proud of you (I had a feeling you'd be the one to get it). I was highly disappointed when Scott had no earthly idea what I was talking about--and I've used Tippy-Toe, Lemontree before as a code word.
