My Gyro


Since she was born, the Sleep Sheep has been Temple's constant companion in bed.  It is one of the few items she has used since birth (one of the others is the McClaren Chair.  Thanks, Kat, Stef and Emily!).  I wrote about it before.  It is an adorable stuffed sheep that emits soothing white noise.  Temple prefers the sound of the ocean, but also available are sounds of a babbling brook, a rainforest, and the wind whistling through the trees.  Even after Temple met Owl Pacino and started sleeping with him every night, the Sleep Sheep has kept watch, a faithful sentinel shushing baby T to sleep.   

                            So it is particularly grotesque that Temple's favorite food, really the only protein she will eat, is gyro.  Apparently, she's got a little Greek in her, because she will go to town on some tzatziki and lamb.  Of course, Matt and I think it's great.  Every time she eats the gyro, she seems to sleep longer at night, and that means Matt is sleeping more, which makes gyro Matt's hero.    

"You make me baahrf.  I don't know how you sleep at night...O, wait."
