This morning, Kevin was lying in bed as I woke up.  Usually, it takes me hours to fully wake up and at least 30 minutes before I am coherent enough to speak.  This morning, however, after only 5 minutes, my brain was at work and my mouth was just yap-yap-yapping away.  Kevin reached over and covered my eyes with his hand.  When I squirmed to get away, he said, “It’s just like a bird.  If you make it dark, they’ll go to sleep and be quiet.”
