Night Mumblings

The Scene: It's 3:00 am. Noelle is crying. I am awake, changing her diaper. Bedside lamp is on.

Me: Shhhh, Noelle. I love you, Noelle. Shhh.... (and various other soothing comments)

Luke: (Eyes still closed) Hey, did you talk to that guy about that transplant?

Me: Luke, be quiet and go to bed. You don't know what you're talking about.

Luke: OK.
