The Art of Sleep

Just as I thougt, the 4 hours long stretch nap was only a one off thing. Yesterday, was totally the opposite. I couldn't put him to sleep. As I left him, he sat up straight and called out for me.

As I'm writing this, Amar is napping. Let's see how long he will sleep this time!

Once, Sarah was reading her nursery rhymes book while I was 'busy' blogging away. The next thing I knew, she has already fallen asleep. Probably she has lulled herself with the "Rock-a-bye Baby" rhyme. Couldn't resist taking a photo of her with the book.

(This is for kenakelayan) Last night, Sarah and Amar slept at 8pm. I started to tidy up the house, doing the laundry, washing up etc. When everything was more or less done, I sat infront of the computer, "minding my own business" and tried my best not to enter any entry in my blog.

Around 1am, Amar cried. So I quickly went upstairs, didn't want him to wake the whole neighbourhood. Repositioned Amar, and he continued sleeping.

THEN Sarah cried. When she felt my hands tepuk2 her back, she calmed down.

I wanted to leave her, when suddenly Sarah celik mata and toleh towards me (ala2 cerita exorcist) and said; "Mama dia mana?"

She repeated herself a few times, with her eyes wide open.

When I didn't answer, she answered herself, "Mama dia (m)akan kot?"

I knew straight away she was referring to cerita "Spirited Away". The part where Sen nangis masa makan pau dengan Haku. Each time sampai scene tu, she would ask me, "nape?"

My usual reply was "Dia cari mama dia kot."

Then she would say, "Mama dia mana?"

"Makan dengan Babah dia."

Sampai termimpi-mimpi si Sarah banyak sangat tengok Spirited Away!

I nak buang DVD tu! Banyak spirit. Tak elok untuk kesihatan.
