Being a mom can be tough

 Being a mom is for the most part pretty easy and predictable.  Baby E eats, plays, sleeps, repeat.  Today he decided to throw me for a curve though.  He did not want to sleep.  Making it very difficult to know what to do with his screams and tears.  What's a mom to do!  I bounced, swung, rocked, CIO, ran the vacuum, and walked with to try to get him to sleep.  I nursed every hour thinking he would fall asleep that way.  And he did, but woke up screaming the second I walked away.  It was a very stressful day.  I was so glad when daddy got home. 

Good thing he's cute.  It made up for all the stress when he gave me this sweet smile.  I love my son.   But let's hope tomorrow is a better day.
