The circadian rhythm was a foreign concept to new babes who had no concept of day, night, or time. It seemed like every hour they awoke and demanded to be fed or cleaned. @Meerkat was a perfect mother and Njord tried to help where he could, but he could not deny his exhaustion!

On this morning, his wife had slipped away for a small break. Njord tried to steal a few more winks of sleep... but it felt like only a second had passed before one of their new daughters was awake.

To his surprise, it was not a screech or cry... but a sound of joy. Njord's tired expression managed a smile, not realizing a milestone had occurred: Seal and Orca's eyes had opened!

"G'mornin' wee ones," Njord cooed as he nosed their little bodies, as one turned a potato to make sure it was cooked evenly on all sides.
