Baby Radar - A Sleep Deprived Rant
If the government of any nation could somehow duplicate BABY RADAR, I think that everyone else should live in fear forever!!! Let me explain.
BABY RADAR is the ability a screaming child has in the middle of the night to sense when his father finally wakes up enough to sit up in bed and head toward the before-mentioned child's room. At that very moment, the child quiets himself and goes back to sleep. That same BABY RADAR also senses the very instant the child's father has returned to bed and the warmth of his blankets, activating the child's need to begin screaming again. If that natural sense could somehow be duplicated into a form of intelligence technology, I personally hope that the country of which I am a citizen is the one that owns said technology, otherwise, we all should be living in monumental fear.
It probably goes without saying that Josiah's recent sleep habits have fueled this thought process. I have not slept well the past couple of nights due to his BABY RADAR. However, I cannot complain because Ashley, first of all, is a much lighter sleeper than I, forcing her to wake up sooner. I can imagine her sitting there for 20 minutes thinking, "how can he sleep through this?" Secondly, she has one child's crying in her ears (figuratively) and another's every move in her womb (literally). So, she definitely sleeps less than I do. Ok, that's my rambling for today. Sweet dreams!
