child crawls into parents’ bed after being awakened by an ominous hum
when kina was first born, we were super hesitant to have her in the bed, because we didn’t want to smother her, but it was the middle of january and so cold and she would cry and cry all night. eventually, we gave up and plopped her between us in the bed and she slept like a log. we did not do it for long, but every once in a while, she hears a noise and crawls between us at four in the morning, and it is wonderful until she slaps me in the face for snoring.

That poster has been rolled up in a packing tube for longer than Kina has been alive so this is a major accomplishment. Also happy anniversary to me and Kina‘s mommy who are very very happy to be here together and with her. Seventeen years!!!
