Somehow I thought my being up all night would be due to elaborate partying or being frisky with my mate . . . Amazing how I feel so exhausted and yet so excited that I might get a chance to cuddle with K-town for a moment in the middle of the night! Yes, I am crazy, AND it's true! It isn't the first time I've been up since 2:00 am, my last midnight cuddle with Kenna. So what if it's because she's wet and so what that I need 8 hours of sleep or I have trouble remembering to wear matching shoes before I rush out the door to work?! I still get a brief quite moment of just me and her. I still get her head resting comfortably on my shoulder before I lay her back down for bed.
It's the middle of the night, and I'm watching the most beautiful snow fall outside the window and listening to Kenna breathly softly through the monitor. I thought I would be frustrated for not being able to sleep, which in the past has been the case. But this morning in this moment I feel fortunate that my life is what it is, that I am up in the middle of the night, that I feel at peace on the inside.

I love all the new pictures....GREAT blog
I need some of your energy - when Owen wakes in the middle of the night, I lay there thinking 'Will it pass or will I need to go in there tonight?' It's a good thing that it rarely happens.
