Chillin’

Have you ever felt as though you actually did something right as a parent? Getting a hammock for Sage’s room feels like one of those times. It was inspired by the fact that apparently someone else had already done so, and left some really heavy-duty eyehooks in the wall. I bought a huge (holds 750 pounds!) hammock that comes from somewhere in Mexico. It is so comfortable!

Sage decided that he was going to sleep in it at night. Last night, he was swinging away, tucked in there with blankets and books. Here he is this morning.

He did not want to get up at all. The whole thing reminds me of when he was a year old and the only way I could relax with him was by taking him outside and swinging with him in the hammock there. I think it still chills him out in that same way.

The blue blankie is how Varmint gets chilled out. She will go to whoever has the blanket near or on them. It is really soft and fuzzy. She always starts making biscuits…it’s like her blue blankie mama or something.

On another note, I dreamed I was a lion last night. I was creeping through the grass and woke up from adrenaline when I lunged at another lion. I’ve never dreamed I was another species before! Perhaps Varmint’s dreams are somehow influencing mine…

  1. I want one!!! It’s perfect. My cat Tallulah lays in that same weirdish position–what is up with that? I always wonder that she apparently finds it comfortable.

    Oh, I’ve been working on my library blog–check it out and let me know what you think. I actually like it way better than my personal one right now.
