Jonny is not sleeping at night. For several weeks, he has been waking up every hour all night long. (except for a few days when he has gotten up every few hours instead of every single hour) It is exhausting!! It seems the reason for his waking is that he wants his binky. He might be teething. But, he's definitely not sick! I know for sure that I would like to get more than 1-2 hours of sleep at a time!! I need some serious insipiration, because my sanity may be riding on getting him to sleep better. Again, Prayers are appreciated!!:)
There is a sister in our ward who is a teacher. Every week during the "good news" portion of opening the meeting, she updates us on how close school is to being out. Today, she said 26 days. We have gone from counting weeks to counting days. Am I looking forward to seeing more of Sam, not rushing through the morning, having someone around for Abby to play with, and all the fun activities that summer break will bring: yes! Will those things make up for the already constant fighting between my kids that can only get worse with added time together, the "mom-I'm-bored's", and the inevitability of Abby's naps (and my daily quiet time) becoming ancient history: time will tell!! Once again, prayers are appreciated! Also appreciated are summertime tricks/ideas for keeping my kids entertained....
On the upside: Spring is here and my flowers are blooming, Jonny rolled over last week for the first time, Jeremy finished our new pantry (pictures to come), all our started seeds sprouted and are on their way to being food, the spraying we had done for wasps worked: they are no longer building nests in the yard, and we are all healthy and happy.....
Now a deep breath and let's see if I can get through this week with a smile on my face.
