Forget counting sheep, this little girl draws herself to sleep.
4 year old Riley, nicknamed Roozle, likes to be given crayons, pens, markers and some paper before bed, so that she can doodle herself into a slumber.
Mother Casey Carey-Brown has been documenting her daughter’s night time illustration habits, and the images, which show Roozle surrounded by colouring implements and half-finished sketches, sometimes even still holding the pens in her hands as she dozes, are undeniably adorable.
As well as getting a glimpse into the sketchbook of a soon-to-be illustrator at large, these cute-as-a-button photos show the softer side of what is usually considered a battle of epic proportions; getting the kids to go to sleep.
