Nighttime Adventures

Overall the girls have slept really well while mom has been away, but last night was an exception. Etta found two unique excuses to get up in the night.

At 1:30 AM, she started crying. I went in to see what was going on, and she pointed to something in the dark. It was the Valentime's Day balloon - which somehow still has helium in it - that has been tied to her bed for the past two months. Apparently this was the night that it freaked her out in the dark. Once she realized what it was, she was fine.

At 4, she cried again. I asked what was going on and she replied, "I want it to be morning." Ah, remember the days when you just couldn't wait for a Tuesday morning in April to get started? It has been a while.
