Good morning. If you would be reading this live, then you would be well ahead of most people in North America. So to all you early risers due to your kids, here's to you... Dawson was up at 4:00. After about 45 min of knowing he wouldn't go back to sleep, I got him dressed, and we went for a drive to our favorite 24 hr coffee shop, and then drove around for a while. I find that often I need to really distract Dawson and take him away from where Sylvia is, if I am watching him, and we don't want to disturb her- like when she's sleeping this morning.
This process can be so frustrating and disheartening at times. He clearly has a preferred parent, and I'm okay with that, because that's normal. But often, he obsesses so dramatically over being separated from her. It makes it hard on her as well, because she was maybe just looking for a mental break or something, and he's in the other room, losing it, and causing Daddy all sorts of stress. Anyhow, that's one reason I thought of going for a drive this morning- for both of us.
So here we are- Veggie Tales at Jr's request, and the laptop to keep Daddy awake. Are we having fun yet? Enjoy the picture. - t
