Sleepy Lips

December 29, 2013 by Elizabeth

There’s usually not much obvious difference between Negra awake and Negra asleep. Even when she’s awake, she’s often lying in a nest with a blanket draped over her head. But you can always tell when Negra is ready to close her eyes because her lips start looking too heavy for her face.

    Oh my gosh, Elizabeth! That’s a perfect description of Negra’s sleepytime face (mine, too)!
