A Lumpy Heart

A Lumpy Heart

Kind of ironic-I’m on bed rest and I have the hardest time getting the real rest (meaning sleep).  I’m minding my p’s and q’s, but I struggle sleeping at night.  Usually I get 2-3 good hrs of sleep and after 1am it’s a game of toss and turn.  Tonight has been a bit harder to sleep though.  Right now, it’s 4 am and I have a lump in my heart keeping me from shut eye.  I have been so excited for my boys to start school today.  They need it to keep them busy- a schedule, learning, being around friends will help them pass this time.  Getting them excited and ready for the first day of school is one of my favorite things (probably the teacher in me).  Josh took them to the Back to School Night yesterday.    But the part that is really hard for me is not to be there in the morning- to get them breakfast, make sure they are all put together in their new clothes, missing out on their excitement, talk, smiles, and missing that candid mommy picture moment.
