One of my favorite things at night
is to watch my children when they're sleeping.
As I watch them one by one,
I wonder what dreams they are keeping,
and hope their little minds embrace
the good ones,
and keep out the bad- that come creeping.
The moonlight plays shadow games
on their faces, as an occasional smile
teases upon their lips.
I listen to their breathing,
as it slows and becomes deep.
This is a time I'll always treasure,
and a peaceful moment I'll forever keep...
The other night I thought all of the kids were tucked snug in their beds and to my surprise found them all tucked into Sammie's. At least they were all sleeping!!

So sweet! So, I must know, are you the author of all of your sweet little poems?
Ah Ha! I think that Jamie Lynette Edson would appreciate a little credit! (so obviously, I'm still having that little mood problem that we discussed!)
Whatever Lisa! Have you had your veggies today?
