PANIC!

Scene: My bedroom. 3:30am.

Torii crawled under the covers and scooted down by my feet. In a sleepy panic, I believed that this was Isla. I remember thinking...Oh God, how long has she been down there?! She could suffocate! So I jumped out of bed and carefully started digging through the multiple comforters I had cozied up with (I was afraid if I shook the comforters Isla would fly out of bed onto the floor like our tv remote often does when we are looking for it). I became frantic when I didn't see Isla, so I started searching the floor around and under the bed. At this point my heart was pounding. The one night I'm alone with Isla and I lose her!! Then, my eye catches the monitor and I see Isla snuggled up safely in her crib. Phew. This is exactly why I cannot sleep with my child!
