My Heart is Full

The sweet slumber of an infant.  My little mister is such a calm, easy going fella.  Even when he awakes from his nap.  His eyes open and he looks for me.  I love watching him sleep, but I also love watching his face fill with joy when he opens his eyes and sees me.  I know how fleeting this stage is, how fleeting the whole 18 years are.  One minute they are helpless babes needing you for everything and the next they are spreading their wings and flying the nest.
