It all started with Katie coming in just before 2:30 am and saying, “Mom, Jenny sounds like she’s throwing up.” She was. While sleeping on her back. I had to wake her up to wash her hair and change her sheets and clothes.
The next thing I knew, it was 4 am and I was still awake and trying to get to sleep, and Bill’s alarm started going off because he needed to get up. I relocated to the couch so his half hour snooze session wouldn’t prolong the onset of my much needed slumber.
I’m not yet thinking straight, and I have a jam-packed day with no time for naps. I’m “taking” my coffee now and soon hope to rejoin the land of the coherent and non-babbling.
Good morning, world.

There is nothing worse than that middle-of-the-night barking sound. My heart goes out to you and my coffee cup is getting tipped back in commisseration. Hang in there. Pray, make more coffee, and blog as necessary.
May you get all the energy you need today, followed by a night of deep, refreshing sleep. Blessings!
I am also tipping back my second cup of mocha with you – baby decided to wake up at 4 AM this morning while I was up until midnight so that I may actually spend time with Colin last night. Wonder how we will all be doing by 4 PM? I don’t know about you, but I am really trying to figure out how to squeeze in a nap!
