A Slow Morning

-----

"Papa I'm hungry! I want some big pieces of meat! Roasted and with sauce on top!" 

"I'm hungry too, belly empty."

Benladra and Kate protested for food as they woke up around the same time as I did. It feels like my whole family is somehow connected to me on a more intrinsic level than I imagined.

They slept the same amount of time I did and finally woke up once I did. Perhaps they shared my exhaustion or something. Well, we did fight together as one with everything we had, so it makes sense, perhaps.

The two had slept in the same bed too, it was big, so they were cuddling with me and their mother and aunts. Although the girls were hungry, they looked as refreshed as we were.
