Or mommies really either...
I mean who can sleep peacefully while wedged between two spoiled rotten pitt mixes, and a 6 year old who magically transforms into an olympic gymnast in her sleep?!
Since my wonderful princess/gymnast spent her night with a 102+ fever, no church for us today! Instead our day is being filled with swollen glands and a delightfully grumpy little girl, movies, hot tea and soup. Thank goodness I'm on my 3rd cup of coffee.
During my delirious state last night, I did take a trip into deep meaningful thought. While cradling my daughter and having her cling to the only person that she believes can "make it all better." I thought, I don't mind one single bit on living on 4 hours of sleep!! I am grateful for the extra snuggle time with this little girl that is growing up wayyyy too fast for me to handle.
I'm pretty sure mommies everywhere know the feeling… sleep deprivation is just one of many sacrifices mommies make for awesome perks like all day cuddle bugs.

Nice work sister, you never cease to impress me! You are an amazing mother and I'm certain that she is sopping up every bit of love that she's getting today.Motherhood is a fabulous adventure where only the strong survive, that is until they reach the teen years and then we start pulling our hair out, wear cute hats to cover it up, all the while drinking more wine just to stay sane.
