For some inexplicable reason my toddler decided he was waking up at 6am today, but he did lay in my bed for about an hour after he woke up to rub my back and say “sleeeeeeeeeep! Mama sleeeeeeeep”

It was a super hard read! Took me a lot longer than other nonfiction books of similar lengths and density, but like you said they loved it and were brave enough to write about it too! Helped me get through it. As much as it’s stuck with me, I sincerely doubt I’ll be going back for a reread soon

Hmmm not good enough. Need another cat pic to verify you’re real
