The only way he would not cry in the car was when we played a type of friends of ours who were opera singers. I can tell you this time passes & they do grow up, faster then you want, & with all the sleepless nights I would do all over again if i only could.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7218663.post-89129609673386807842010-09-16T12:30:34.416-04:002010-09-16T12:30:34.416-04:00Thank you, Joe!

One of my favorite parts about the lack of sleep is the thought process that goes: "Okay, I'm tired as all heck, but I can take a nap when he/she takes a nap!" But that never happens because naptime is the only time you can actually get anything done.

I laughed hysterically at the paragraph about remaining calm, having a funny one-sided conversation with a screaming child, zonining out, the BOOM! Explosion, thus magnifying the crying. All while wondering what it'd feel like to play real-life Frogger with my car. <br /><br />The closing lines were the best. After a sleepless night of trying not to give in, the second you do your little one is happy (because you gave in), and life is perfect. I've found, in the past nine months, that you CAN be too tired for any amount of coffee to completely fix, but I remember the fun mornings and not the sleepless nights.Joe S.http://www.pricelesspursuit.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
