Since when do eyes speak?

Afton has a habit of coming into the living room in the middle of the night and sleeping on the couch. Usually what I do is bring her into our bed and let her sleep there for a little while longer.

This morning wasn't much different except she didn't want to sleep. So, a few minutes later she was out and about.

I asked her why she wasn't sleeping since she said she was tired.

She said, "My eyes said 'No, thank you'. I tried to close them, but they just kept opening."

I guess that is a pretty good reason to wake up!
