Sleep
Sleep is such an amazing thing. Just by lying down in a horizontal position, closing our eyes and dreaming our bodies and minds become rejuvenated and able to live through another day. I'm so grateful for sleep! Especially when Sam is sick or teething (as he happens to be at the moment) and Elton volunteers to take him for the night so I can have a turn getting the sleep. I've been trying to be the one who takes him so that Elton can feel refreshed for work in the morning, but last night he said he was going to take the day off to work outside, so he would take Sam. I woke up and went downstairs to find my 2 handsome guys sleeping on the beanbag together. What a beautiful sight! And I feel so good to have been able to sleep!

I'm sure that was some much needed sleep time. I can relate. How sweet of Elton to take the day off so you could sleep. I bet he enjoyed spending time with Sam too. I love seeing Cody have daddy time with Lexi, so I can just imagine how cute it was to see Elton and Sam napping together on the bean bag. Precious moments!
sleep is a long lost love of mine. it has been about 8 years, to be exact. Even on the rare occasion brian takes the kids like that, it's inevitable that they come wake me or I hear someone screaming their head off and I feel too guilty to just stay in bed. Oh well, one day I am sure I will be wishing for these days, but for now, I miss sleep right along with you!!
