“You won’t have time in the morning!” she talked back quickly.

She wasn’t ready to up yet. “No， you won’t! It will be just like today when I told you to look at the chicken hawk. You didn’t listen to what I said.”

You always take time to play with me，
I love you Mommy，
Because I am the biggest part of your busy day!
Tears filled my eyes. When I softly touched her face， she awakened from a dreamless sleep and asked， “Why are you ， Mommy?”

She smiled and then went back to sleep， not really understanding how strongly I what I said.
