my kid went from the easiest kid in the world to put to bed to the hardest
I'm literally at my wits end. I'm so tired. So overwhelmed. So ready to come home. Boone figured out this morning how to climb out of his bed. Not good. I tried putting him down for a nap this afternoon and he climbed out 4 times. I tried putting him in the big bed and he wouldn't stay there. I tried everything. Andy came "home" and was able to get him to sleep by laying down with him. That's fine, but I don't want to start that habit. Wyatt never did this so I'm clueless as to what to do. He never climbed out. And when put in a big bed, he stayed there. Not so much Boone.
Tonight, I've been trying for an hour to get Boone AND Wyatt to bed and they are still not asleep. I'm sure Boone will greet me at any moment.
I think out of the 7 assignments we have had this has been my hardest. I'm chairing our YL Banquet and there is so much I have to do to get ready for that and I'm overwhelmed. My mom had her hip replacement surgery yesterday. Everything went great, praise the Lord, but I really want to be with her.
I just have a bitter spirit and it sucks. I'm tired. I'm hot. I don't hardly get a "break". I don't get to see much of my hubs. I'm a complainer. I know.
I don't know what's going on at camp. I don't take many pictures (my therapy, ha). I haven't heard one YL talk.
I wish I had some great stories to tell about kids. What God is doing in their lives. How to pray for them. But I don't. I do know He is at work. I do know He is sovereign. I do know He is changing lives.
I get to see one of my bestest friends tomorrow and I am overjoyed. Just to have a little piece of "home" and someone who knows me and loves me well. I emailed her to tell her when she leaves I'll probably cry. Ha!
I'm bummed this is where I am on our assignment. I know this is a phase with my kids and it won't last forever. It's just super hard being in it at the moment.
