Truesday Tales 2.1

2 Feb

[First shared in February 2015]

I stand over him, watching him sleep, gushing about the perfect curve of his cheek, loath to go to bed. Daddy is under the covers with his tablet already, rolling his eyes at Mummy for being this besotted. I ignore him and continue to gaze at Mr. Bean, soaking up every centimeter of his babyness.

Until, something occurs to me and I realize that the pater hasn’t been reading at all. He’s been admiring the 3000 pictures he clicks of our son each morning. While the fruit of his loins is 4 feet away.

But I’m the besotted one. Right.

    This is true! For me! While the father tried to get the babe to sleep, I would ogle at the photographs 🙂
    Though now, am just glad the monster is asleep. The terrible twos are here with a bang 🙂

    M….: We’re all guilty as charged. 😉 Glad to know there’s a fellow monster out there!

    Besotted you WILL be
    Even after HE has a baby
    So glad you can take pictures
    We didn’t have camera apertures
    Where kids are concerned we’re all crazy!

    Aunty G: One of the biggest reasons to have him was so I could have a grandchild. No pressure or anything, of course! 😉
