Do you ever look at your sleeping children and think...?

Question

wow, they really do look like angels? My oldest daughter is asleep right now and she just looks like an angel fallen from Heaven. How can I be so lucky to have such wonderful kids?

Answer 1

My baby is 8 and a half months. She is a gift from God to us. When she is asleep, she curls her body and looks like a foetus in the womb. She also sometimes puts her tiny hands in front of her angel face and looks as if she were praying. I catch her also sleeping with her mouth open sometimes and she looks then so funny. But the best part is when she falls asleep in my arms and puts her head on my shoulder. That gives me a very warm, tickling feeling and puts on my face a big satisfied smile.

Answer 2

They truly are the manifestation of angels. Their innocence, their beauty, their unconditional love.
Remember that we were that once. We still are inside, its just lost.
You are very very lucky to have your children/. This is coming from somebody that was looking down the barrel of infertility for 8 yrs. My angel will be 3 next month. I watch him often and just cry. You, me and others must have done something right to deserve such perfection in our lives.
I've thought of praying for more, but instead I pray so that those with none can at least have one child like I now have.

Answer 3

What a nice guy you are. I thought only mothers did that. Yes I looked at my sleeping daughter many times growing up and thought she looked like an angel. When she was awake I thought she looked like a mischievous little angel .ha Keep up the good work dad.

Answer 4

Wow! That is just so beautiful. Yes..... yes I think that all of the time. With their eyes closed and their little mouths open just a tad. Their little chubby fingers sticking out from under the covers. They look so innocent......... so pure....... so trusting.... not a worry or a care in their heart. I think this all of the time. But to hear a dad say these same things? I'm so touched...... so impressed!! Your children are so very lucky. :)

Answer 5

Yes, I will have to agree. Nothing like watching your children sleep. I always wonder how God could give me the care of the little angels. They are so sweet and fragile. I love it when my oldest one laughs in her sleep. Then I know I am doing something right.....

Answer 6

You have been a good father. This is your reward. I feel the same way when I check into my 10 year old twins bedrooms(boy and girl) and see them asleep. I forget and forgive any minor transgressions they might have committed during the day. You have a bit of the poet about you.

Answer 7

Yes they do look like little angels,I also lie in bed at night when the house is quiet and I can hear them breathing,deep peaceful breathing,letting me know they are deep in slumber,I can even tell who is who by their breathing,angels when asleep little devils when awake..........

And when you look at them you well up inside with pride and that lovely warm feeling and love........You are a great dad thats why....
