Miracles

Surely last night I thought God placed a miracle in front of me. Kinda. It was a 6 hour miracle with only 2 small sidetracks. Ever since we have moved again and Rick is absent for the time being it has been really hard to get Kaci back in her groove. Many restless nights and many nights of her not wanting to be in her bed. So last night I went back to the old routine of putting her to bed right after her bath (and her teeth brushing). She fell asleep last night in 6 minutes...literally. She woke up for a few minutes around 9:30 so I covered her back up and she went back to sleep. I heard her for about 10 seconds around 11 but I didn't even get up. THEN at 1:40 am she woke up just cryin her little head off. Needless to say, we were up until 3:00 am. Well, I had to get up at 4:00 am so I just brought her to bed with me. She slept until almost 7. I was at the office by the time she woke up and Great Gma Reta was there with the kids. Seriously? So, tonight I am trying the same tactic. She hasn't been so easy to get to sleep tonight. She keeps waking up. I know as soon as my head hits the pillow she is gonna be up. What the heck is a mom to do? Clearly I cannot let her scream forever. At the same time she has to get used to HER bed. She used to have a ceiling fan at our house in HI. I think I will hang something from her ceiling so she has something to look at if she wakes up. (Thanks AT for the idea!) Otherwise, its just going to be a constant battle. I don't want her sleeping with me forever! I love her, but I'd like my bed back.

On to other news. Courtney's soccer scrimmage is tomorrow! We are all going to be there to root her on! YAY! Pics to come! We have to be to the firld at 8:30 am. Scrimmage is at 9:00.
