Too Early for This Nonsense ...

So Jocelyn doesn't seem to care this morning {like MANY mornings} that I'm tired and STILL sick after almost a week. I don't think she understands that you NEED sleep in order to get BETTER!!

Come 4am she was hootin' and hollerin' for me {which is still better than some of the hours that she deems necessary to wake me from my blissful slumber!}.

I just wasn't having it this morning.
I simply DID NOT WANT to wake up.
And definitely not be chirpy & cheerful.

But atlas, I pulled myself from my warm, cozy bed. I blindly walked into her room, picked her up without saying a word and brought her back to my bed. I never do this because I figure why bother? Its not like we are actually going to be sleeping. But today, I simply needed to lay there for a little while longer.

So as we laid there, and I tried to not be the crankiest fire breathing mama dragon in the world , we started telling told stories. That started the smiles for us both.

Sang Songs.

Gave Kisses.

Had a Mini Tickle Fight.

And then after about 30 minutes, I felt like I could function on some sort of level.

 

Sort of.

To prevent literally looking like the walking dead all day with a cranky attitude ...

... I have some delicious Stash black chai spice tea steeping and aching from some milk and honey!! That'll do the trick and hopefully get me going so I can match J's energy this morning.

But seriously, here in a few days, daddy is TOTALLY taking a few shifts!
