Tonight, we were coming home from a lovely family visit, and you started to fall asleep in the car. God, I am going to miss family drives where you fall asleep in the car.
Most people don’t know that I had hyperemesis gravidarum when I was pregnant with you. To my knowledge there is still no information on what causes this, but I used to hypothesize that it was because you were so active. You never slept. Not when I was pregnant with you, and not for the first year of your life. The only time you would sleep was when we were in the car.
Watching you sleep in the car was one of my favorite things when you were a baby. Mostly it was because I would finally be able to take a break, but also it was because asleep, you were finally still enough where I could just look at you. You as a sleeping infant, is no different than you are as a sleeping young adult; absolutely perfect!
