I have a cold.
The kind that usually keeps one from sleep with the achy-head-stuffy-nose business.
For many nights I tossed and turned.
When my head hit the pillow last night and it started incessantly pounding from all the snot rushing my cranial cavity I just knew it’d be a tosser. And turner. A really bad night.
I knew it.
You can imagine my surprise then when I awoke this morning and the sun was creeping in through the blinds.
No tossing, apparently.
Very little turning. If any.
Last night was a good night.
A good night sans Nyquil.
Who needs Nyquil after all?
Not when each and every one of them were tucked snuggly in their beds.
Home.
Finally.
Just a hall away.

LOVE that photo…so cute. Feel better!
I bet you did sleep well! Feel better, though!
Rest is sweeter knowing everyone is where they belong, isn’t it?
I think I may have just breathed a sigh of relief for you! I can’t imagine letting them go, and how wonderful it would feel to have them back! I’m certain that knowledge that they’re just down the hall helped you rest.
Feel better!
So glad that you feel better, and that everyone is home!
Yea, so glad for you…
Nothing say peaceful like knowing where your kids are and that they are good.
Your kids are so beautiful!
I’m happy everyone is home safe and sound. Is today back-to-school day?
I’m totally with you on this. Even Ambien can’t help a Mom sleep if her kids are on her mind…
What a sweet, sweet picture!!!
Glad they are home! I love that picture!
LOVE that picture. Your family is gorgeous.
P.S. We still need to go down and get some railroad track photos. Hopefully we won’t get kicked out next time… ;)
LOVE! Just love.
And your sons eyes are piercing! So incredibly beautiful. Almost haunting.
