Today, I will sleep. Tonight I will work.
Really?
Do people actually do this?
Somehow, I find that I am actually someone who DOES this. And even though my body screams at me for hours before, and for a day or two afterwards, I actually LOVE what I do enough that I still do it!
I enjoy working with new moms and babies in a maternity center. I love teaching moms how to care for themselves and their new babies. I love coaching the couplet through the beginning of the dance of breastfeeding. I love being present to moms in the wee small hours of the morning, when the rest of the world is quiet and yet the baby is awake.
My hope is always that I am where God needs me to be. And if I am at work, that God would make my sleepless night productive.
Here's to being nocturnal. At least tonight.
