Sleeping Beauties?

I went to turn the light off in the girls room the other night and this is what I found.  It was so very indicative of their personalities I had to document it. 
Darla lives in a haphazard way.  She has no inhibitions and isn't ever coerced into doing anything she doesn't want to do - unless you can make her think she's teasing someone and then she'll do just about anything to get your goat.  She is very comfortable in her own skin and knows that the world loves her.
Ksenya is always beautiful.  Everything she does is careful - even in play she is aware of how she looks and how others are perceiving her.  She has some insecurities but is also not afraid to try new things or be the "first" for something.  She can be a leader, but she doesn't have to be.
Ayvri is a thing of chaos.  This isn't the best picture, but she always has a foot sticking out of her bed at a strange angle.  She likes the comfort of being bundled and has to have blankets all over her right up to her chin, even when it's hot.  She likes to be touched, to be held and cuddled and she likes to move.  Even in her sleep she does laps around her bed.  Her hair is always wild and she doesn't care if it's in her face.  She usually sleeps with a smile on her face and quite often talks gibberish in her sleep.
