The post I wrote in my head this morning before I realized the baby monitor broke

One Shining Moment

The bed is made
and there you are
been training your whole life
you're a sleeping star

And all the months
no one knows
just how hard you worked
but now it shows

One shining moment, it's all on the line
One shining moment, there frozen in time

But you are small
and the night is long
in the blinking of an eye
ah the quiet's gone

And when it's done
win or snooze
you always did your best
cause inside you knew

One shining moment, you reached deep inside
One shining moment, you knew you were alive

Feel the beat of my heart
feel me caress your face
Sleep until the morning
you can complete the race

Once and for all
Mommy snoozed
You slept all through the night
And Mommy thanks you

One shining moment, you reached for the sky
One shining moment, you knew
One shining moment, you were willing to try
One shining moment

For those who may be unfamiliar with the real lyrics:
