Click, click, click, click, click..
Lick. Lick. Lick. Lick...
Meow?
Thump.
Matt has dozed off... not quite settled yet.
Caelan rapidly sucks his pacifier in his bassinet.
Ries is grooming herself one last time.
Bruce... calling out.. wondering where everyone is.
Dillon has jumped down from somewhere he isn't supposed to be.
I listen...
Whish.... whoosh. Whhish... whhoosh. Whhhish... whhhoosh.
Click... click....... click......sigh. hhhhhh, hhhhh, hhhhh.
Prrrr.. Prrrrr...
Prrr.... Prrr.....
Jingle... Prrrr... Prrr.
Matt's breathing has found its nighttime rhythm.
Caelan stops sucking and settles to that deep slumber.
Ries has tucked in against my hips to sleep...
Dillon piles himself on my feet...
Bruce... with his belled collar.. has found all of us and joins Dillon.
All are accounted for, all are settled in for the night.
I rest.

Didn't take long to become "mommy" in every sense of the word, did it?
I love this post.
Amanda, I love the way you have captured night in a "family" home.
Hope you don't mind that I sneak a peek at your life every now and then. I log in at Alethea's site, after keeping up with the written word of my family. (Alethea and I talk almost every morning while she is on her way to work.)
Alethea's mom, Judi
