Last night, Norah had an interesting conversation with both myself and Ryan separately, but about the same topic. The following is my exchange with her last night while tucking her into bed.
Norah: Did you know that I don’t ever sleep? Instead, I just close my eyes and think about things. I’m just thinking….with my eyes closed…and I’m not sleeping. Oh….and I get all my energy from the food that I eat, so I don’t have to sleep. Isn’t that amazing?
Melinda: WOW….that’s amazing Norah. Why don’t you lay there, close your eyes, and start doing all the thinking that you do, all the hours of the night.
Norah: OK, mama, but I’m just thinking….I’m not sleeping.
Melinda: I love you Norah. Sweet dreams my darling. Don’t let the bedbugs bite! Hug….Kiss…
Norah: I love you too, mama. Don’t let the bedbugs bite….Hug….Kiss.
