Watching Him Sleep

Some days when I am so tired, (which is every day) I think I just want to sleep a few minutes.



Always on the weekend.
When I lie down, David joins me. He is as tired as I am and he sleeps so good.
(He would never forgive me if I had the front view. )
He sleeps so peaceful. I love to watch him sleep.
Don't you just love this head full of white hair? Sheri this is who Gavie has hair like. His photos of him as a boy showed a head full of unruly hair.


I often just lie and watch him sleep, I watch the movement of his eyes and listen for his deep breathing. I cant help but wonder how many more days we will have this opportunity.



For a season, for a moment in time.


I could stay awake just to hear you breathing,

watch you smile while you are sleeping,

while you're far away and dreaming,

I could spend my life in this sweet surrender,

I could stay lost in this moment forever.

Every moment spent with you

is a moment I treasure.







I don't wanna close my eyes

I don't wanna fall asleep

cause I'll miss you babe

and I don't wanna miss a thing

cause even when I dream of you

the sweetest dream will never do

I still miss you babe

and I don't wanna miss a thing.
