Stop Asking How my Baby Sleeps

it's the least interesting thing about her.

Ask me how this week

all her favorite things start with b:

blue, book, baby, bottle, ball,

boys named Dada.

Or ask me about the things that make her giggle:

the wind

Cheerios

tumbling block towers

her kitty cat

the list goes on and on.

Ask me about who she is:

curious and adventurous,

sweet and so silly

bringing joy to everyone she meets.

How she sleeps makes her a baby,

everything else makes her uniquely mine.
