Last few weeks, L and I have been counting sheep to help her fall asleep. I describe a beautiful pasture on a lush green hill, with a wooden fence at the bottom next to a riverbank. We have one hundred sheep, and they are naughty sheep, you see. They like to hop over our fence and play down by the river. But they usually hop back over soon enough.
Often the sheep hop the fence several times, and she's still awake and wants to recite Backyardigans for a while instead. Sometimes they all come back over to our side of the fence, and she rolls over and drifts off to sleep. Tonight I didn't even make it to 60 sheep before looking over and realizing she was sound asleep.
Counting sheep. Sometimes you just gotta stick to the classics.
#this is like record time for her falling asleep lol#in fairness shes had a stuffy nose all day and even though thats all she has#like me. she apparently has her whole day ruined by a stuffy nose#i dont blame her i cant stand being congested and my nose constantly runny#ill honest to god take a bad headache over that shit#but yeah shes not been feeling her best today and apparently she was exhausted#asleep in about a minute. dang girl
