Mama and Elsie cuddling on the bed.
Mama thinking how lovely is this girl.
Eyes close and they drift into slumber. The sweetness of being together.
Mama hears a sound.
Oh okay, Elsie’s bringing up a little milk. Dab, dab on sweet lips.
Oh okay, Elsie’s projectile vomiting everything she just ate in one supersonic arc all over Mama and the bed.
Big smile.
Sour milk smell. Wet sheets. Milk chunks.
Still lovely.
Just different.

sooooooooooooooo sweet!
Ha!
she’s brilliant. I can see it in her eyes.
I tried to give Jer a doll. You know, to encourage his nurturing side. He goes to sleep squeezing a bus.
