Unknown1 We woke up to find a guest on our matrimonial bed, who is she? How did she get here? We looked around to get a clue  but there was nothing… how  could we have slept without knowing when the guest tiptoed to our bed, what was she doing here? she has got to talk, should we wake her up for an explanation or leave her to wake up on her own…with the way she looked, images-50  legs spread and hand in a surrender position, we knew she must be faraway in dreamland, we looked at each other, knowing this guest has come to stay and will not be leaving anytime soon….   images-46 See me see local trouble, I have been sleeping with Mrpossible for a long time on our matrimonial bed and even though then we realised it was too big and were contemplating a smaller one, we never thought one day it would feel so small, with little or no room to sleep, not that we don’t like to cuddle but this guest has put us in a constant cuddling position leaving no room for small small shakara, if you know what I mean How it all began? As newly weds, the bed was always too big for us but inasmuch as it was big, there were times where we would just spread and take the whole mattress especially during pregnancy but after pregnancy our guest arrived, her name is babyJ, inasmuch as we made a nursery for her, got everything that would make her feel safe in her personal room, she never stayed there not even on her crib.  Her first bed was ours as she grew up, when we moved to oman, we quickly introduced her to a cot and she fell in love with it, before we could get a break and go back to our usual sleeping pattern, the babe has resurfaced and anytime we drop her on her cot, she comes out to lie on my chest… Most times there is a battle, who gets the better part of my body to rest on, let me paint a picture( you know when two animals are fighting over their prey) and babyJ always wins as I have to give her attention so hubby and I can start our night when she falls asleep(clears throat). It is not an easy process as sometimes when I want to be with my man, he ends up sleeping off because she would cling to my chest like a child fighting for the last piece of candy( not good at all for night activity) *wink( Maybe I would talk more about this when we discuss sex with a guest on your bed)hehehhe images2This guest has a sleeping ritual, play with dad a lot but come to mum to rest on her chest for the night, she must rest on my chest and if dad offers his chest, she refuses and even cries except it is mine( if it is not omo, it cannot be like omo..hehehehe) and this has stirred up jealousy and fights between both of them. Also before she sleeps, she would touch my mouth,and Nose, I still don’t know what that mean then she would finally sleep off after tossing and turning on my chest like it is a foam, banging her head , till she gets the appropriate spot. Finally she’s asleep and you think, you can now have your peace, and gently place her on the bed, not her bed, yours, (she always kind of know when you drop her on her bed and in minutes cries with her hands stretched towards you) and then the night dance begins, she turns around,leg on your head , hands under your pillow, at the head of the bed when dropped to sleep, at the foot when you wake  up…. Now every time I think of going to sleep, I think of the fight of who gets the best part of me, who wins and who loses but above all, I think of the guest in my matrimonial bed.
