Tired

I'm glad it's the weekend although there's no rest. An 8 AM game for FE with pictures at 7:30. Plus Generations. And a sleepover for SB. And the lack of sleep that comes with having a 17 year old boy.

I remember vividly how exhausting coping with a newborn was, but at least it was a good payoff. I loved caring for my babies and usually didn't mind getting up with them in the night. With an older teenager it's about waiting to here them come in so you can finally sleep peacefully. It's a worried sleeplessness. It's so much less fun. And for all of you out there who think that girls are harder teenagers than boys? Think carefully before you say that in my presence. And actually raise one of each. Because I'm not buying it!

Well, he was pretty easy as a little boy right? Maybe that's why you're getting the difficult part now...lol! But not to laugh at your tiredness and worry. I'm sooo not looking forward to the waiting up for her to come time. I'm glad it's a long, long time away. *hugs*

That was supposed to be come home, not come time. We had a bloody nose in the middle of the night and it took me awhile to get back to sleep, so I'm with you on the tired. Ugh.
