Sleepy

It's about 11:00 pm on the midnight shift, and I'm trying to keep silence, maintain order, and stay awake while Ella, her Imma, and her Safta sleep. The last 3 nights Ella has slept on the couch pretty solid from about 9 pm to 12ish -- and we let her. I watch her until it's midnight dinner time...and I've had some help from our favorite hell-raiser:

Gray Scrooge.

After not even giving her the time of day, the last two nights Gray Scrooge has given her a little sniff and slept next to her on the couch until we take her to her cradle.

He's still more dog than cat. If this continues, I will have to devote a Picasa album to our faithful guard cat with the concrete head.

I think he just knows he can't be yelled at while he's that close to a sleeping baby. It's his safe place.
