Zombies have taken over!!

So I'm here being a Zombie with lack of sleep because both my kids decided sleep wasn't for them last night. First my oldest couldn't sleep by herself so I dragged her in with me so I could sleep but then a short while later the boy decided to wake up crying in the hallway so I dragged him in the bed with us also. BIG MISTAKE!! The kids thought it was fun time and wouldn't let me sleep. So from 12am until now...WIDE AWAKE!! with two cranky kids who don't want to sleep and I'm sleep deprived.

Why I broke my own rule and allowed them to co-sleep with me? Their father is out of town on another business trip to California for the week. I'm recovering from the flu/cold whatever I have and I need my sleep so the smarty pants I am thought if we all slept together in the same bed WE all would get a good nights sleep....look how that worked out for me?

Now a sleepless night and I'm hacking out a lung and my kids are fighting with each other on who kept who awake all night. I thought it was both of them but apparently I lost that battle.

So the three of us look like the living dead, cranky with some crying and that's just me. The daughter is upset I'm keeping her home from school today. I wonder why? and why punish her teacher because of my lack of good parenting. I'm sure lack of sleep for a 5 year old doesn't go well with learning in a school environment.

Life Lessons: never break your own rules!! Take care, Peace!!
