This morning's quick post is not even going to include a picture....because a picture of me sleeping would be creepy and bizzare. And no one wants to see that anyway.
That said, I need to do a quick ode to sleep, since its all that is on my mind this morning. Remember the old saying, we always want what we can't have? Well, last night I wanted sleep and I couldn't have it. Between Mark- my wonderful, handsome, fantastic Mark- snoring away in my ear, and Landon bouncing and yelling in his crib, I was doomed.
And so this morning I sit typing with dark circles under my eyes (cleverly disguised under make up, of course; I'm a tad vain and cannot lie about that!) and that "Do not talk to me, look at me, think about me, or I'll bite you" Look on my face. But really, I have that look on most Monday mornings. Who am I kidding- most MORNINGS.
So this is my lesson today. Yes, I lost sleep, and do not look or feel that great because of it. However, I have a feeling that someday, years down the road, I'm going to lay awake at night for no particular reason, and remember the times that I had rocked Landon in the middle of the night, and how he looked up at me with those big eyes. And I think I might just wish for those moments back. Like I said, we always want what we can't have. So...just enjoy it while you can. Even if it gives you circles under your eyes.
That makes me think of the Trace Adkins song "You're Gonna Miss This." These are some good times, my dear.
