Tempest

2:43

I woke up to crying

While sitting up I rub my eyes and slowly exit the room being careful not to wake up Harry.

I eventually make it across the hall to the bedroom Toby and lyric and sleeping in.

I go over to each crib careful picking them up and taking them to the rocking chair that is placed in the corner of the room, turning on the lamp with one hand in the process.

While rocking them slowly I start to sing one of Harry's songs sign of the times and the y calm down almost instantly just staring up at me while trying so hard to resist closing their eyes. Not long after they are sleeping contently in my arms, and soon after feel mine get heavy as while sand let the sleep consume me.

Trying to get comfortable I shift in my sleep to cuddle closer to tempest but some conclude she's not there. Opening my left eye I soon realize she's not in the bed at all and start to panic. I quickly stand up, which was a bad idea because I get super lightheaded and fall back on the bed and a few seconds. I try again and this time I am successful! I slowly make my way toward the bedroom door, into the hallway, and toward the nursery. Yawning I slowly open the door and immediately stop. There she was sitting on the rocking chair holding are beautiful children while the three of them are asleep. I quickly but quietly go back to our room and grab my phone before making my way back to the nursery to take a couple pictures, setting one as my background.

"How did I got so lucky" I quietly make my way over and lay one the couch next to the rocking chair and drift off while cuddling into make family.
