8. things you said when you were crying
I should anticipate it at this point, really.
Every night, you wake up screaming, crying, or both. I wake up, but you’re too panicked to notice. I try comforting you, but you just move away from me, sobbing and rocking yourself until you calm down or fall back asleep.
I really should anticipate it, but in the back of my mind I always wish that you’ll sleep soundly. But that’s not how it works. It’s a vicious, horrible routine.
