In the Middle of the Night


There is not much in Jack that is neutral... and he is most content in play, so even at his most quiet he's pretty animated.  So sometimes, in the middle of the night when Jack's night terror starts to wake up Finn, I take Jack into the other room.  Unlike during Finn's night terrors, just the change of space tends to relax Jack.  So I hold onto him a minute, usually still trying to edit photos until I feel he's deep enough asleep to return him to bed - only a minute or two.  But the other night I just looked at his totally calm face.  It felt like a little peek into a part of him a seldom see.
