When the kids were little they would fall asleep in the funniest places. They would be roaring around the house and then it would get quiet. You notice this and get worried. You start to look, and lo and behold you find them. They got tired and crashed in mid stride. On a chair, on the floor, on the stairs, wherever. They were so cute when they were sleeping.At night before we went to bed we would always open each door and make sure everyone was snuggled in their beds. It was so sweet to watch them sleep.
Now they are big and grown up. They come over to eat the food and enjoy the family. Then, just like in the old days, they fall asleep. You throw a blanket on them, and move their soda so they don't spill it. Then you watch them, and they are still so cute. Sometimes they are joined by various lazy animals that sleep all the time anyway.
I wonder if God ever looks down from heaven and watches his children sleep? It is a comforting thought that our Father looks upon us with warm and loving care.
It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.

What a beautiful thought. I take comfort in knowing that God looks down and watches those of His who want to sleep and can't get to sleep, because of the cares of life. That's what's so precious about small children. They are trusting of their mom and dad to take care of everything, and they drift off to sleep sweetly and peacefully.
and the cell phone is always within reach!
What a cute and fun picture!!! I don't know about others who read your blog, but I was glad to see an actual picture of the "often written about" Lou.
