ve haf vays of making you sleep

Dude. The tears at bedtime. They're not because he can't fall asleep. They're because he IS falling asleep and he can't stop it and inevitable encroaching sleep is going to steal even more of the precious irreplaceable hours he could be using to look around at things and try to shove them in his mouth! His pacifier makes his eyes droop and so if we don't swaddle him he tries to pull it out as soon as he can. If the Junebug could talk he'd be screaming NOOOO THEY BE STEALIN MY CONSCIOUSNESS.

Ha, my black kitten used to do that when he was really really teeny. His head would droop down and then all of a sudden would JERK back up and he'd focus his eyes and two seconds later he'd be dozing again. It was funny because you could see him getting angry he was going to miss out!
