DAILY SNACK
I stop writing to scoop the baby up.
And I lie beside her,
Nursing her back to sleep.
Suddenly it’s two in the morning,
And I’m awoken with a THUMP! AAAAH!
Ed rushes in to help C back into bed.
I put L’il I back in her crib and get undressed.
Another hour and she’s crying again.
I know she shouldn’t need to fed at night,
But still I scoop, lie down, nurse, fall asleep.
Repeat as needed until morning.
