O.K. I am now gonna take a little time to let off some steam! I am SO TIRED! I am going on week 4 of all three of the children being sick! We have had difficult times of getting them to go to sleep,and all of the other fun things that come along with children being sick! Each day I pray for a better day but unfortunately the days seem to be getting longer and harder right now! It might have something to do with the fact that I am not resting enough either! Ava's going to sleep is getting worse also! She just absolutely refuses to go to sleep! It doesn't matter if it is for nap time or bedtime! She just doesn't want to go to sleep! In the afternoon it has been a three hour or so fight to try and get her to rest! Even with that she still doesn't fall asleep! At night for bedtime, lets just say that if she is asleep by 11 that is early! Once she does fall asleep , she is waking up at around 4 or 4:30 wanting to watch t.v. and be up for the day! During these struggles with Ava, we have also started having "wetting the bed" issues with Emma! No joke, she has wet the bed EVERY night for almost 4 weeks! Needless to say I also have a literal MOUNTAIN of laundry! I am sorry for this rant but I thought if you guys knew what was going on you could pray specifically for these issues. I am praying for strength and alertness during this time and for me not to experience any seizure activity due to the lack of rest! It is very hard for me to go to sleep and then wake up every 45 min or so ! So just lift up our precious family for some much needed rest! Rick has been such a trooper , he tries to help with them during the night as well , but he of course needs his rest to be able to go to work and do his job well! I wish I could just go put on my "SUPERMOM" costume, and laundry would be done, dinner fixed, the house clean, be able to play with the children,get them to rest, and still have a little extra time for me! But that is only in make believe! So I will now end my little pitty party with this latest blog and just GET OVER IT & MOVE ON! So DONE!!! I'm Better now! Thanks for your prayers and listening!
