I don't know what fills me with such total happiness. Maybe it's just the peace of having such kinetic little creatures at rest. Maybe it's because of the stillness that everything around me slows down and when I stare down at those adorable faces it's like being able to have a living photograph in my arms. Maybe it's just how open and trusting and beautiful the are when asleep.
I don't know, but it feels like I'm counting the days now - until they won't want to cuddle and snuggle and that recognition of their very skin will move on as the grow and we all let go a bit.
I think any sleeping baby is pretty precious, but there is something breathtaking about MY sleeping babies... because, of course, they are mine.
