"Aiwy" someone whispered. They shook my arm.
It was about two in the morning so I was in the middle of sleeping.
"Aiwy" the person said a little louder. I dug my head into my pillow.
"AIWY" the person yelled. I sprung up.
It was my baby sister Amber. Wait how did she get out of her crib? You know what its too early to do this much thinking I'll just let it go.
She was standing next to my bed looking at me with her big blue eyes. I lifted her into my arms.
"What are you doing up?" I asked her. "I tired" she said rubbing her eyes. I sighed a little.
"Nightmares?" I asked. She nodded. Amber has been having these bad nightmares where she can't get back to sleep.
I tried rocking her but that failed. The normal thing to get for a toddler when they are tired is milk. The only problem is she despises milk so that's out.
She was squirming in my arms and getting grumpy.
I got her some water but she threw her sippy cup at my wall making a loud bang. Alec my older brother came in my room looking tired.
"What is going" he faltered when saw Amber. "Why is Amber in here?" he asked. "Nightmares" I said simply.
He nodded and picked her up. She rested her head on his shoulder.
They are like really close. She really doesn't listen to anyone except him and dad. Alec rocked her while saying soothing words and she was asleep in seconds.
I mouthed 'thank you' to him. 'No problem' he mouthed back. Amber had one hand clutching his shirt and had her thumb in her mouth with the other.
I awwed a little she looked so precious. I kissed her hair. He took her back to her room while I tried getting back to sleep.
I almost got to sleep when I heard a loud cry. It was Amber for the second time tonight. I slumped to her nursery.
She was sitting straight up in her crib with her face bright red from crying. She has the loudest crying I have ever heard.
I picked her up and tried to shush her. After a few minutes I gave up and took her to my parents room.
My dad was 'asleep' holding my mom by the waist. I shook my dad he lazily looked up.
"Why is Amber crying" he asked. "Can't sleep" I said. Amber whimpered in my arms. Dad looked sympathetically at us then cradled Amber.
"It's ok baby I'm here" he said soothingly while rubbing her back. She whimpered a little less.
I'm so tired. My dad saw me tired and pulled me in his arms too.
"Your still my baby girl" he whispered in my ear. I smiled and nodded in his chest. Eventually I fell asleep.
My family is pretty awesome.
