every night we become master burpers, sooth sayers, rockers; our prayers go straight up
every night we lose our breath, our pace goes a little faster - over excitement while sleep deficit is building up
every night ends and daytime brings rest baby turns back into a sleeping angel calmly nursing on a schedule
until the next night
