This is not what I planned.

I had a decent post in the works, but in the past hour (well, over an hour now) that I've been writing it, Charlie was throwing a tantrum and woke Simon up twice - so I've been away from the computer more than I've been on it. Yes, an hour long tantrum WAY after he had been put in bed for the night. It makes no sense to me why things have gotten so out of control but they have, and we've tried everything, from rocking to singing to back patting to even letting him cry and scream for short intervals. Nothing works consistently.

We had two great nights in a row on Tuesday and Wednesday, and I was hoping that was the end of this terrible stage, but apparently not. So instead of my decent post, here's this crappy, whiny one. I'm a little irritated because I even uploaded pictures to post but it's just getting way too late. And Simon woke me up at 4:30 this morning all ready to play so I'm just dead.

But I hope to redeem myself with this offering.

My new favorite song:



Listen to and enjoy this little beauty, and I'll see you tomorrow.

I'm sorry, friend! I hope you got more sleep than you did last night. If nothing else, you will be in great company today( if I do say so myself)

Ugh. Tantrums bite. Both of my kids have gone through phases with them. They are exhausting.

And I know how you feel about being irritated at not being able to put up the posts you have in mind. Life has a way of interfering with blogging...

Here's hoping you get more rest and quality time with your computer to get down to writing!
