If it's not one, it's the other!

Elijah has now slept through the night 3 nights in a row! Yea! But early this morning Moses awoke at 4am as bright and cheerie as a little bird! He has been sleeping in our room lately as we were working on Elijah sleeping through the night. Well when he woke up he started "chirping" and wanted to get out and play. We brought him into bed for a few minutes of snuggles, but it was hard getting him to go back to sleep. He just wanted to play and as far as he knew it was time for everyone to get up! I recall my dad telling me that when my sister and I were little, like 3 and 4, we woke up at 4am, got dressed and went into mom and dad's room and woke them up ready to play! I don't remember that at all, but I know what it's like! He did eventually go back to sleep but then Elijah woke a couple hours later ready to eat:) I know these days will soon pass and these moments are precious. My heart is filled with joy(most of the time) at the wonder of the Lord's goodness in giving me such sweet boys. When they smile up at me, it makes me feel like I'm the best thing in the world and it makes all the hard parts of motherhood worth it.
