Watching Stars

Every morning is the same:

Fall out of bed

Shower

Put pajamas back on - it takes me a while to face the day

Apply makeup

Towel dry and comb hair

Sneak out of the bedroom

Let Boji out to pee

Feed and water Boji

Go to family room and turn on the news

Only this morning as I went into the family room I noticed our Brown Eyed Girl's door to her room was open.

 

She was not in her bed...

For about 1.5 seconds, my hear sinks to my toes, a lump develops in my throat...

Normally if she gets up in the middle of the night, our Brown Eyed Girl lays outside of our bedroom door.

Only once have we found her in our room, laying on the dog bed - Boji displaced on the floor.

But I knew she wasn't in my room.

She definitely was not laying outside of our door - I would have stepped on her.

Where the heck could she be?!?!?!

Turning on my heels and returning the the family room, there she lay. Spread out in every direction on the recliner.  

 

I gently wake her.

"Honey, what are you doing out here in Daddy's chair?"

Curling up into a small ball of cuteness, "I was watching the stars."

"Watching the starts???"

Smiling and pointing to the dormer windows, "Yeah Mommy. Look! You can see the stars."  

Sure enough. "Yes, you sure can see them from those windows."

Laying her head back on the arm of the chair, "Yep, and they are beautiful all the day!"

"Yes, yes they are!"
