Just when you get it right …
I got into bed last night and said jokingly to my husband “maybe we will actually sleep in the same bed the whole night together”. For the last 2 weeks I have had either one of my boys in bed with me with coughs, colds, temperatures, nausea. My poor husband has been banished to Tom’s top bunk. He is 6ft 3in, trying to sleep in a 6ft bed. Finally last night I got both boys down in their own beds and all seemed to be going right. I switched off my light at 11pm and at 11:20 was woken by Daniel crying. Went to check on him and he was sweltering hot. Needless to say, husband was kicked out of bed and I spent most of the night battling with a sick toddler. Just when you think it is going right, something happens and you have to adjust and make a new plan. Maybe tonight I shall have a peaceful night. I thought that sleepless nights had finally ended… but no!
