Lately Truman has been waking up during the night with Growing Pains, I still vividly remember these from when I was a kid. Growing up is hard to do. I know he is growing, and growing quickly…. I know because
1- Growing Pains in the middle of the night, all night. Ouchie!
2-The other day he ate 2 bowls of mush for breakfast, 1 grapefruit. For lunch he ate 2 hot dogs, and salad (or Let-Us as he calls it) and dinner he had 2 big helpings of Lasagna and bread.
3-Waking Truman up from Quiet time took me almost an hour. I kept waking he up, and then he would start playing, then fall asleep again.
and again.
and again.
Poor thing. I wouldn’t have forced it, but we had a new babysitter (our usuals were busy) who was coming for the evening, and I didn’t want him to not go to sleep for her!
Growing up is hard to do.
I dare say, it is even harder on mommies watching little one get so big.
Oh how blessed I am to be a mommy. My days are treasures, and yet so numbered. They grow so quickly. I love being home, having adventures with my boys…
