Still My Little Bumkin

Have you ever walked into your child's room just to watch the rise and fall of their chest when they sleep and notice just how peaceful they are?

This week, I had to go over and get Kiya from school after Dance Club.  It ended at 4pm so I got ready about 3:50 and Mylee was laying in my bed watching tv, something we do after a busy day just to rest our bodies and minds.  So I asked if she wanted to come with me,  she said no and wanted to stay where she was.  So I left her downstairs to watch tv and let Mom know that I was going over. 

There was a knock on the door and there was Kiya.  Now before you think badly of me, we live right across the street from the school and Kiya knows to walk with a partner, which in this case she did. I asked Kiya how her day had gone and she said "great".  Then I went downstairs again to get my nexus so I could read my book and this is what I found

My little bumkin was out cold and so incredibly peaceful.  I snuggled in with her and just watched her sleep.  I was sad to wake her up as she was so pretty just laying there.  There are lots of times when I look at my girls sleeping and they still remind me of the babies they were.  I miss them as babies, but love watching them grow.  I just wish they didn't do it so fast.
