Putting Kids to Bed and Marriage

Go to sleep, my little child

There are important men and women talking on the TV, and I want to go hear them for a few minutes

Go to sleep, my blessed

It is late, and you must wake up early for school tomorrow

Go to sleep, dear one

Close your eyes and breathe. Let your mind wind down. No more talking

Rest, my lovely hope

I want to spend time with your mother for the first time all day, and hear about her afternoon

Sure, I will lay with you another minute longer

Thirty Minutes Later Honey, did you fall asleep in the kid’s bed again?
