That Feeling...

My favorite feeling in the world is that moment when my daughter turns her tiny head to the side and rests it on my shoulder.

She doesn't do it often....

Because even if she is tired,

She wants to be facing forward,

looking at the world,

at the people,

at the T.V.

at the cats,

and the dog.

You will know she is dozing off when her head starts to droop,

and her eyes start to close.

But in the moment you try to turn her around to rest on your shoulder,

she will yell

"I'm not tired!"

And you will have to turn her back around....

to fall asleep looking at the world,


drooping toward the people,

and the T.V.

and the cats,

and the dog.
