There’s Something About A Sleeping Child …
August 2, 2009

Creating this post took me back to one of my all time favourite music – Sleeping Child by MLTR. Click here for the video and the beautiful lyrics. I loved playing this song softly while I looked over my sister sleep back when we were kids. She definitely wasn’t a baby then but slept like one.
Having been recently gifted a Photoshop CS3 by my sweetheart, I P’shopped the original B/W pic (sourced from PhotoBucket) into the above. The words in the picture are inspired from our recent visit to see a newborn boy.
PS: Had totally forgotten about Friendship Day! I am so glad to have known you all. Here’s wishing our friendship grows with each passing day and gives us the joy, fun, strength and courage to deal with life’s mischief!
Happy Friendship Day!!

I know this may sound wierd, but i love the smell of baby’s mouth. When they get this strange urge to bite your nose u will definitely get a chance to smell them. i definitely agree with you… there is something about babies, sleeping or not…. [:)]
Yep, I love their gummy bites!
and the song ‘sleeping child’ u brought back fond memories for me…. Thank u…..
One of my all time faves!!
lovely lovely post cookie and a very happy friendship day to u too..
I am glad you liked it!
Thank you so much Appu!
Lovely poem thoughtful train. Can there be a more heart warming sight than a baby in blissful sleep. Especially with arms and legs bent like only a baby can.
Happy Friendship day to a special friend.
Thanks a million Ramesh. Your kind words never fail to encourage me to keep writing, (I must have told this like 15 million times already!!) A very happy friendship day to you too – wishing you many more friends who ll cherish you for what you are!
Arms and legs bent – yes, that is so irresistible in a sleeping baby.
had to add: chotu sleeps like this even now, with his mouth slightly ajar.. i can spend hours watching him sleep.. it has one of the most calming effects on my mind.. thanks so much for this post cookie
Yeah, I can imagine Chotu as the baby in the picture. In fact among a few other babies I thought of while doing this post, Chotu too crossed my mind.
@ajcl:That was lovely to add this!!
And sweet of you to say that too! /strong>
Yep !!
Tht was a really good Design in Photoshop and words truly good….ohh I wished so much that the pic was desktop size (1200 x 800) so that I would have it as my wallpaper…anyways…grt post and truly agree with ur every word…U should see the pic of my niece sleeping ( It will make anyone fall into sleep..he he)….and “Belated Friendship day wishes”
Thanks so much for the F’ship wishes and wishing you the same too.
That was a lovely compliment, Prabodh!! I ll see if I can find a larger image for you. If I do, I ll be sure to mail you.

Thats a lovely song of MLTR, and hey you have done a pretty neat job at the picture. The words (very inspiring) were inclined like in round shape. Happy Friendship day to you too
Hey Sri, welcome to my blog! I am glad you liked the song and my p’shop.
I used the Inflate effect on the words to make it look like a circle! Thanks for commenting!
Good poem Kukky. You are doing wonderfully well. Nice pic. you have got.

And Happy Friendship day too…..I myself had a lovely day with my college friends after a looong time. We had a blast.
Wow, meeting buddies after ages is something!! Hope the long break went fantabulously!
Hey Nan, so good to see you back!
I must say i have no idea what you mean whenever you state that. Potentially I personally a person might explain this for me greater. It’s not necessarily the same this is Japan. Asians perhaps find it a little in a different way. It’s my job to like to find the Oriental female viewpoint.
