4:30 AM
How does one sleep looking so beautiful? She is in the crook of my arm all nice and warm. This is where she belongs; with me. She belongs here, where I can take care of her, where I can love her, where I can be her everything.
As I was taking in this beautiful sight beside me, I knew that I should get ready; there was a long day ahead of my sweet angel and me.
