Going to bed at nearly 2am last night is catching up with me. So much so, that I've resorted to a cup of coffee at 4:30pm. Now, let's hope this deliciously warm cup of joe, doesn't stop me from sleeping tonight. At about 3pm today, I heard my bed calling me from upstairs. It taunted me with it's comfy pillows and blankets and refreshing rest it offered. Sadly I was strong willed, and resisted, now I'm paying for it.
Time to slow down and enjoy my husband is nice. With how hectic things normally are, I'm surprised he doesn't feel neglected. It's been very nice to reconnect and snuggle a little closer to the man I love. We don't get many opportunities to go out. I'm not sure we'd take advantage of them if we had them. We seem to do just fine staying in where it's warm with each others company, and a good movie. I suppose that's what real companionship is all about. The ability to be content in each others company, without kids around is crucial. I hear of couples not surviving after the kids leave the house. Why? Because there is nothing left to talk about, because when the kids were born you both focused all your energy on the kids and forgot about your relationship. This may sound dumb, but in the evenings on the weekend we do things together. We put the tech down, and either talk, watch a movie or just enjoy each other. I love my husband, he is a wonderful provider, an awesome Daddy, and the most supportive loving man I've ever met. That is why he's MINE!!!
In the beginning I kept expecting to wake up and find it was all a dream. The best thing is I haven't yet, and I'm beginning to believe and accept that I am the luckiest woman in the world. I expected change, because I was making a change. I didn't expect this, sometimes timing is everything. There is no way I would have known it would be this wonderful.
Kaylee started sleeping through the night 3 nights ago. Last night she went to bed at 6 and didn't get up till 6:30am this morning. I didn't mention it before, because I didn't want to jinx it. Now if only I were able to get in bed before 2am. Maybe then I would have as much energy and feel as rested as little miss Kaylee appears to be when she get's up in the morning.
Tomorrow I pick up the older two from their Grammie Waite in Randolph, and tomorrow begins another crazy week. Ready? Set. GO!!!
