children.

I got a tap on my shoulder at 3 something this morning. The wind was scary, and woke Van up.  I invited her into our big bed, and I knew as soon as she climbed in...she wasn't going back to sleep.  Van has never been a good sleeper.

After she was successful at waking up Paul...she successfully woke up Vin too.  That's my girl.

She didn't fall back to sleep until 6:30 or so...and then my day started for realz just an hour later.

I realize the days of her wanting to snuggle in my bed, and thinking I am cool...are numbered.  I hope they aren't, but I am realistic.
I am tired today, but those sleepless nights are well worth it nowadays.

Totally worth it. They grow up so quickly!

Man oh man, this is a good perspective. Lydia has been literally hanging on me all day for the past month and it's driving me crazy. I'm always tripping over her or having to pry her loose in order to get anything done. I need to just change my perspective and enjoy it because she won't do this forever.

GOOD MOMMY AWARD!! So I'm guessing that Van didn't get her "vangs"?

Thanks for reminding me that I need to always think positive. I need my sleep and have a really hard time if it gets interrupted. We all have bad nights and now I'll try harder to cherish them. Thanks!

At 3am, I'm never this positive. You are such a good mommy.

They grow up so fast (which is a blessing and a curse).
