Wake Up!

Sarah is usually standing by my bedside at least 3 mornings a week. Sometimes at 4 or 5 in the am. She stands. She waits. As I SENSE her there or somehow FEEL her presence, I am startled awake. This scares her and she starts to cry. She speaks. "I can't find my raggies and my bed is all wrecked up." The sentence never changes and I must go find her raggies and fix her sheets and comforter and tuck her back in so she can get back to sleep. I can get back to sleep too. I find it strange/funny that she never says MOM or tries to shake me to get me up. She is just THERE. A vision of loveliness at 4am.
