A new day

I woke up this morning slightly unsure of what day it was. As I searched my fuzzy brain for an answer, I looked over to my bed-mate, Olivia, to watch her sleep. She woke up crying last night around 2 am and I dragged my sleepy self into her room to quiet her. It took longer than usual - she was restless and couldn't seem to settle in. I had planned on sneaking out and getting back to my own bed, but I soon resolved myself to staying in her room. So glad we decided to get her a twin bed - makes it much more cozy to stay with her.

She slept so sweetly and soundly this morning. We had to wake her for breakfast, which was not on her agenda. It took some gentle persuading to get her to be one with the world, but she is happily (I think) settled at school for the morning. 

A beautiful day is on the horizon. I see some quality time spent outside on the the new-ish swing set.
