Sleepover

Maia: May Skyler, Caroline and I have a sleepover?
Me: When? Where?
Maia: Tonight? Well, we have the biggest boat and no brothers...
Me: It's 6pm... Our boat? Will you sleep?
Maia: Yes, of course.
Me: Will you tidy up?
Maia: Yes, of course!
Me: Will you be nice to us in the morning after having too little sleep?
Maia: Yes!!
How could I say no, and miss this...

  1. That is so stinkin' cute!! Zach and Doug and I have slept out on the tramps, but most of his buddies are not quite mature enough for that yet.

  2. Takes me right back to the Florida Keys and living offshore with our preschooler who would fall asleep anywhere. One of the first times we took her Hobie-catting she was 14 months old and despite our flying a hull she sprawled out over the lifejacket bag and slept the whole way around Key West.

    She crawled up into the bow of one of the amas of the 44 foot house-cat during Hurricane Andrew and slept right thru that too.

    I love the misty mornings and laid back days of our lives back then.

  3. Oh. My. Gosh. What an amazing photo! And more amazing is that you got up early enough to take it!
