for lobo


It always makes me smile when I read stories about mothers who finally get their newborn babies to sleep. Not for the obvious reasons... No, I smile because I think just wait until those newborns become teenagers... That "peacefulness" takes on a whole nother meaning...

P.S. Still don´t have email. So please don´t think I don´t love you. It will hopefully be back on Monday.

When my second daughter reached her teenage years, her sleep schedule became so much of a problem that it affected her ability to go to school. Then there was the night that I couldn't sleep, because she had gone out in the late afternoon without telling me where she was going and didn't come back until 11:00 O'Clock the next morning. At least with 2 a.m. feedings, I was able to sleep the rest of the night.

A sweet post. Did Jane did you take the photo? Nice. I have heard the same from my sisters and friends, that the day their child/ren are born the nights of sleep are gone, no matter how old they get. Have a golden weekend my friend! xoxoxo

Oh... my 8 months old daugther wakes up at least 5 times a night and I just realized that I hadn't had a proper sleep since I got pregnant! And I wonder if I ever have a chance to sleep decently again ;) But honestly, I wouldn't change a thing!

Hava a happy week :)
