CLEANING YOUR HOUSE WHILE YOUR KIDS ARE STILL GROWING IS LIKE SHOVELING THE WALK BEFORE IT'S STOPPED SNOWING. ~dayspring~

What is Sleep?
I did not plan on getting up this way. It was still dark, maybe 5:30 and the girls were already playing all over us in our bed. Why can't they sleep??? This was a morning I wanted to enjoy because starting tomorrow I have to get up by 6:00/6:30 every day. That is my "plan". I guess they wanted to get me going a day early. No really, they are up many times before the sun. (also the middle of the night) And they are usually getting into trouble. I keep thinking, maybe in another year or two they will realize that sleeping is actually a good thing. No, I don't want to speed up time to get there. I know I want to enjoy every minute of their little lives but just the thought of a whole night's sleep would be a dream come true. :0)

Hi Margarete! This is my first time to visit your blog. I found you through Michelle's blog (Michelle's Tidbits). I absolutely LOVE your blog. I had your page on my favorites list before, but for some reason it had messed up, and just had a bunch of jibberish on it, so I was not able to read it. But I'm so glad to have found this again! I just wanted to tell you that I saw on Michelle's blog where you commented on fall in PA. Well, I just wanted to say that I came through PA to sing in a wedding once in October, I believe - possibly November (it was about 15 years ago!) - and it was just GORGEOUS!!! I took so many pictures of the beautiful, beautiful trees. You must LOVE it this time of year!
Blessings,
Aprille :0)
Nathan has finally began to sleep through the night most nights and it has been WONDERFUL! My oldest Jacob likes to get up before 7 AM though so we need to work on that a little. Hope you start to get better sleep soon!
Hugs,
Michelle
