He Knows

As I lay him down for a nap he knows I am in the room. He knows I have left the room. He knows I keep checking on him. He knows I cannot take it when he cries. He knows I will give in eventually. He knows it may take an hour. He knows it may take longer. He knows he is tired but he will fight it. He knows he is going to win. He WON! An hour and a half later. As I feed him some muscle milk (breast milk) he slowly closes his eyes. Now, he is in a deep sleep. I put him down to sleep and walk away. He is so gone he does not realize that I have WON.
