Tough day
Charissa spent most of the day fussing about nothing in particular. She acted too good for the shots that she received yesterday to be a problem, but something was amiss. Now, after fighting nearly two hours to get her to bed, we've figured that she may be having bad dreams. She's cried out every night for the past four, in spite of the fact she's slept through all of those nights except for that moment. Because we're so close to the date of her abandonment, we think that she's dreaming of that and that she's thinking it's happened to her again.
I remember that giggle I got when I walked into the room to get her this morning at 4:00 AM and the grin I got when she woke up next to me at 8:15 AM--after a two-hour struggle to get her back to sleep. Something is in that little head.

And don't you wish you knew what it was? Babies think so much more than we give them credit for. If only there were a way for her to understand that everything is just fine.

understand completely!
Dalton has been waking up lots! we know what his problem is!anyway!
but the other day, when he woke from his nap he was frightened and it happened again, about an hour after I put him to bed that night... nightmare? We rocked, and I sang to him, and he calmed down. We are all so tired around here. tonight will be hard for us too, I cried when he left today, but we see him at 7:15 Sunday morning! till noon, and then again at 5 Sunday afternoon till Wednesday morning,
please pray for his safety, Erin's some comfort, and Nana and Pappy, too. Monday is court day again! pray for justice here!
thanks friends.
and Charissa-- go to sleep! :)
