Wednesday October 12

I would like to say that last night was awesome.

I would like to say that we slept like babies.

But that didn't happen.

I had high hopes.

I really wanted to sleep.

But 3:30 rolled around and Elsie was wide awake.

I don't know what to do.

I tried until 5:30 to coax her, rock her, bribe her to sleep.

I gave up and let her watch a movie.

At about 6:00 Cassi woke up and I went and laid down while she hung out with Elsie.

But the little boy woke up at 6:30.....so not much of a nap.

Oh well.

I went upstairs and Elsie had fallen asleep on the floor.

I didn't want to take her to her bed, cause I knew the furnace guys were coming again and would wake her up.

So I put her in Cassi's bed.

She slept there until a little after 11.

I was worried that her bedtime tonight would be ruined....but she went to bed and is sleeping like a baby.

I, again, have high hopes for the night.

But, just to be safe, I should get to bed.....soon.

*****

After school today, we made some cookies for bubbles.

She brought us some fresh cut flowers last weekend and we wanted to return her basket with a treat.

I took the 4-wheeler and the kiddos rode along in the little trailer in back.

They thought it was pretty great.

I think I am gonna go to bed now.
