When She Sleeps

My wife is truly beautiful. There is nothing on this earth I'd rather look at day after day. During the day when she is awake I can gaze at her eyes forever, it seems. They change from time to time. Why I have no idea, but the fact that they do is really cool. Sometimes they appear darker than others, but always they are worth the time I spent looking at them.

This is all well and good, but it is when she sleeps that she really amazes me with her beauty. Asleep she is the most beautiful creature on earth. Something in her smile, that fascinating, peaceful smile touches me. Maybe it is because she loves to sleep so much (she really does). Maybe it is because when she sleeps I control the TV remote (yup - ESPN baby!). Mostly I think it is because I know that the re-occurring evening event means that when I awake she will be a part of another day with me on the road to forever.

Something very cool must happen to her when she sleeps. She laughs at me when I tell her that in the morning she smells like pancakes. But she does! The morning is always when i am most attracted to her (yup pancakes = sexy) and that sweet smell is a big part of it. I cannot tell you how many times I simply wake up, roll over and take the sweet scent of the back of her neck in as if it where some kind of terrific wake up call.

So I guess that's it, she sleeps perfectly and I love it. She wakes up a part of my life. That is certainly worth something every day isn't it?

I can't wait for tonight! Ahhhhhhh!
