Sometimes Jispa needs someone to sit beside her to sleep. She needs a security blanket of sorts. Yesterday was one such day. She kept making all sorts of excuses for not getting sleep. After a long time she got back into our room. ‘I am not getting sleep’. Since jasmine and me were too sleepy to say anything and it was getting late for her, we just took her in. She was knocked out in two minutes flat.
Jasmine and I looked at each other; ‘no I am not lifting her’, we said to each other. So as was predictable, Jasmine got up did the weasel thing. She slept in Jispa’s bed. It was a good thing that in some amazing stroke of wisdom we had made a full size bed for Jispa.
I am not complaining, I got my tiny warm teddy bear to sleep with last night. In morning I was searching for my teddy bear. Where was it? Ah, there it is, all curled up in the froggy pose at the edge of the bed. I picked it up and lay it correctly on the pillow and put my blanket over it. Hmmmmm…nice warm fuzzy froggy teddy bear to wake up to.
Every one needs a security teddy. I’ve got mine.
