Today Hubbie told me that he loved my determination, because it's what got baby boy here.
I get what he meant, but my determination can sometimes be my worst enemy when my body is crying out for a break.
Still, I was happy with myself by the end of the day. The day did not start off too good, and I was feeling pretty worse for wear... I will repeat, sleep deprivation is a form of torture. Just as torturous is hearing how other parents had babies sleeping through the night, much, much younger than yours currently are NOT sleeping through the night. 🙄
But if in life, sleep, food, or a shower can help you recoup some of the day, well that's a day saved, and well worth the effort. I lay down for a while, and then I had some pain relief for my thumping headache, before a strong coffee...
And then I decided to put Christmas lights up. 🎄😍
The Christmas tree has been up for a while, and I'm pretty much done in the decoration department. It's amazing how fast you become at tasks when you have little to no time to spare, and so it was that in two short bursts our outside lights were put up today.
And tonight I sit on the couch in-between baby girl and Hubbie, the blinds not yet drawn, watching our Christmas curtain of lights sparkle against the summer night sky.
Sparkling with determination. 😉
