I Could Sleep Through That

At just about 1 month old, our Teddy B. has been a very busy boy.  As a 3rd child, he's dragged, carted, and shlepped everywhere that his big brother and sister go, and he's handled it with all of the style and grace one would expect of #3.   So, basically, he's slept through every amenity and activity our fair city has to offer.  Call him precocious, but the little bear has waxed poetic about his experiences outside of the womb thus far.  Let's let him break it down for us, shall we?

 I Could Sleep Through That   
 by Teddy Brown

First ride in a car?
I could sleep through that.
Will and Sarah using my fontanels as a worry stone?
I could sleep through that.
Big sister's talent show at 1 week?
I could sleep through that. 
Big brother's tough love?
I could sleep through that.
Elephants, goats, and T-Rexes at 2 weeks?
I could sleep through that.
Soccer practice, doctors appointments, and pottery painting?
I could sleep through that.
The park, art museum, and burritos?
I could sleep through all of that. 
A kindergarten field trip to the nature center.
You better believe I slept through that.

A five hour stretch at night.
Uh........Nope.
