Day 1009: Oooh Boy

Well, Darling A slept great a few nights ago.  It was really nice and encouraging.

Unfortunately, she's been back to a newborn schedule the last two nights.  I am SO sleep-deprived.  So, I gradually crashed as the long night wore on.  HH kindly stayed home and took the kids to school while I slept.  For a couple of hours.

It was really nice.  I felt a lot better after that.  Still yucky, tired, and down--but, nowhere near as yucky, tired, and down as I felt at 7 AM.

Then we ran a couple of errands together and I took another nap.

Sleep should never be underestimated in its value.

Tonight was the kids' school carnival.  That's always a little chaotic, but fun.  It was a Joyful Moment to be together as a family and have fun with the kids while supporting their school.  Sadly, I forgot the camera!

I'm so glad tomorrow is Saturday!

Sleep - wonderful sleep! One of those things we tend to take for granted unless we don't have enough of it.

Amy--You're amazing! I've been wanting to can beans for a while now, but I'm too scared. I might have to call you for some tips and courage.

Mom--So true. Wish we could join you!
