Sleeping Sylvia

Thunder storms have been a very scary thought for the girls lately.  With rain, fireworks, a house fire (not ours, but a block away), and other loud noises, Sylvia especially has had a very difficult time sleeping.  Tonight there was a storm in the distance and she was especially tired.  She would not go to sleep.  I decided to crawl in bed with her and that seemed to do the trick.  After about 5 minutes she was asleep.  I could have gotten up, but something about cuddling next to her made me stay awhile.  She always seems to try to crawl inside you. like she just can get close enough.  She puts her nose against yours and rubs her cheek to give kisses.  She brushes her little hand  across your cheek then lets it rest behind your neck just to check that you are still there and make sure you can't leave.  It is so sweet and I hope she stays scared of storms for just a little longer so I can have the pleasure of a few more cuddles!
