Will is sick.  Croup and a double ear infection.  So, of course, I’m tired from consoling him throughout the night.  I got more sleep when he was a newborn.  This week was ROUGH.  BUT, as my not-so-little boy clung to me a 2am (and 3am, and 4am…) I couldn’t help but be overwhelmed by the joy that is mommy-hood.  Even though I’d rather cuddle with him during normal waking hours – I’m cherishing each little mommy moment before they pass by.

1 pound down.  Not so happy about that, but honestly, I’m sorta just happy to be a functioning human being at this point.  Thanks for all of you encouraging comments and messages!
