Advice I was frequently given when my munchkin was first born was to: "Sleep when baby sleeps!" I thought it was solely for the purpose of keeping up on one's own sleep hours, however over a year and half later, I still sleep when my baby sleeps. Despite the possible productivity possibilities nap time provides, some things are more important.
"But don't forget...
There is a last time for everything.
They will fall asleep on you after a long day
And it will be the last time you ever hold your sleeping child.
The thing is, you won't even know it's the last time
Until there are no more times.
So while you are living in these times,
remember there are only so many of them,
for when they are gone, you will yearn for just one more day of these.
For one last time."
There is a last time for everything.
They will fall asleep on you after a long day
And it will be the last time you ever hold your sleeping child.
The thing is, you won't even know it's the last time
Until there are no more times.
So while you are living in these times,
remember there are only so many of them,
for when they are gone, you will yearn for just one more day of these.
For one last time."
(Poem excerpt taken from a poem entitled, "The Last Time" with an unknown author)
