Sweet, Sleepy Sisters

Well.

We had one good week, and now, as predicted, somebody’s health has tanked.

And the unlucky one is Chicklet.

:(

I’m still unsure of what, exactly, she’s got brewing.

But her congestion has been ramping up, her cough has been, as well, and her ears have been causing her pain. Last night was a rough one, and Mama felt like I’d been run over by a truck come morning, after all the nighttime interruptions. So I could only imagine how she felt.

Unfortunately, I got my answer come bed time, after a relatively okay day, but an evening that started to go downhill.

When I’m on solo duty getting all the kiddos bathed and to bed, it takes a bit of finagling, to say the least. Little Man is usually the first to get his book and song, before I move on to the girlies. And tonight, while they waited on me, Chica read a book to Chicklet (so sweet, I die), which they do together sometimes in Chica’s room.

But when I came out of Little Man’s room and turned around, Chica was waiting for me with wide eyes full of surprise, concern and a little excitement, because...

Her sissy had fallen asleep in her bed while she read to her. :)

I mean, snoring and all. :)





Chica was so surprised she even had to point to the page in the book she’d been reading when she realized what happened, ha. A little re-enactment ensued, hehe.

It was soooo cute.



My poor Chicklet. Wiped after little rest the night before.

I scooped her up and carried her to her own bed—where she slept all of an hour before she began waking up about every twenty minutes.

No bueno.

Gonna be another looooong night, I think.

Wish us luck.
