But at least I know I’ll get some sleep ;-)Deacon: That’s very true.Carys: Sorry, couldn’t help myself.Deacon: I can take it.Carys: This explains why you’re texting me from your date.

Off the charts.“I don’t get why I couldn’t get her to sleep, and then you hold her for five minutes…”“Can’t say I understand it, either.” Looking down at her, he said, “I gotta be honest, though. I kinda wanted to run for the hills when you first asked me to take her. But she made it easy.” Deacon shrugged. “Not bad for my first time holding a baby, huh?”My mouth fell agape. “Ever? You’re kidding me.”“Nope.” He laughed.“That figures.”She looked so comfy in his big arms. No wonder she’d fallen asleep. It must have been like lying in a warm, king-size bed compared to the usual fold-out cot with uncomfortable springs. "
