Day 15

    Well, two nights of uninterrupted sleep was nice. It was bound to end. Jr. woke up at 1am, 3:30am, 4:30am and finally 6:30am. To be fair, I think she woke herself up when she accidentally knocked her soother off the crib and onto the floor (no carpet) and it made a loud *CLACK*. It didn't help that it took me a long time to fall asleep and stay asleep. All in all it felt like I didn't really sleep. Oh well, that's (my) life.

     I'm supposed to write a letter to the person I miss most. I can't say that there's any one person that I miss the most. I'm probably too hung up on the wording but when it says "most" I think of someone I miss so much my heart aches. Fortunately, there's no one right now that I miss that much. I remember feeling that way when hubby and I were dating; whether it had been a couple of days since I had last seen him or the time he had to work a few hours away (luckily it didn't last long). I also remember feeling this way when hubby and I were traveling all over the place for his job right after we got married. I missed my family so much, especially my mom and watching my nieces grow up. I felt like I was missing everything. Sometimes I wonder what it would be like if hubby and I moved away. Would I feel the same way? Was I so homesick because we had just got married? Would I handle things better at this point in our marriage?

     Anyhow, to all of you who are missing someone right now, missing them so much your heart aches, I'm praying for you.

  1. I feel for you. My 2 year old has been waking up a few times a night this week because she's sick and no amount of caffeine can help me. Too bad I can't hibernate for a few months and catch up on all the sleep I've missed since she was born. :)

    My husband has been in the military for several years and it's been hard to be away from my family while we've been on the move, especially now that I have a daughter.

    1. It takes a strong and special person to be in a military family. You're doing a great job!

      Yup, caffeine only gets you so far. You'd think someone would have invented some kind of pill. Oh wait, I think they did but it's illegal...
