Here I lay upon the couch, booted from my bed
A bed that was built to sleep a king, now sleeps a little princess instead
She awoke without knowing, kicking and a screaming
Although we tried and tried to soothe her, it was only that she was dreaming
After a boot to the belly and one to the ribs, I left my bed to her
She will wake me in the morning, quite rested that's for sure
I will smile and get up, pretending not to have missed a thing
As tomorrow night you can be certain, I will once again sleep like a king
Our second night in Florida and our daughter has been up sleepwalking, as well as restless dreaming. We brought her to our bed. which has paid off for her and left me here typing when I should be sleeping. In the morning we are headed for Disney for our very first time and I am uncertain who is excited, besides my daughter, as the boys were happy watching the Grinch movie, even though it's July.
The pool has been a huge hit after one day and we are looking to spend as much time as possible swimming. A couple of falls under the water, with mom or dad right there, has taught the kids the importance of taking care around the water, not that I expect this memory to remain tomorrow when we swim once again. It's funny how they can scream and cry when they fall under, but laugh and cheer loudly when they go under themselves, on purpose.
I am going to attempt to sleep upon my king size couch. If I am grouchy in the morning I will be certain Sleeping Beauty is made aware of my concerns, in hopes she corrects the situation for my next nights sleep. We can all have hopes, no matter how fleeting they may be. I would sleep in her bed, but I think my feet touch the floor. No matter, good night all, I must be rested to save the castle from the evil pirates and rescue the fair maiden. Or I could sacrifice the castle and maiden and sleep in, tough decision.
