One Night Left
That’s right. One night left of “single parenting” it. Ron’s been gone since Sunday, so it’s just been me and the kids. It hasn’t been too bad, but nights are wearing on me. It’s been a struggle doing bedtime. Ron is the “usual” bedtime person for Drew. I think Drew is acting up because his Dad is gone. He’s also be waking more at night, and I think that, too, is associated with Ron being gone.
And since he’s been waking more, I’ve been sleeping less. When he wakes, it’s only for a couple minutes, but it’s just that interrupted sleep that sucks. Sophia has also been climbing into my bed which doesn’t bother me if she falls asleep quickly and gives me some room. But occassionally I have to carry her back to her bed, which wakes me up a bit more. Or when the kids wake up at 5:30 am and I get them to bed, but then I have a hard time falling asleep. *sigh*
My big hope for Sunday? That Ron let’s me sleep in. Though, it’s pretty unlikely since he’s in a time zone two hours behind us. When the kids wake at 6:30 am, it’ll be like 4:30 am his time. But I can still hope!
