Sleep

As I write this, Braxton is still WIDE AWAKE!! It is almost 1 am and I am ready for a good nights rest but this little boy wants to play play play! I am impressed by my son's stamina and I wish that I could enjoy every waking moment like he does. Since he stays up late probably 95% of the time, I had to make a choice about a month ago to either be angry with him or happy. He can't help that his mind just doesn't shut down and doesn't need as much sleep as most kids. I am so glad that I have a healthy boy who keeps me on my toes and helps me realize the more important things in life. Now lets just hope I can keep that perspective when he and Millie wake up at 6:30. ;) haha motherhood is the most difficult yet rewarding work! I thank Heavenly Father everyday for the opportunity to raise and learn from these amazing kids! And just as I end this post....bliss! Goodnight. :)
