If you read my previous post, I talked about not sleeping much last night.
The funny thing about it is...I'm not tired. Not once today have I felt tired. It seems like on days like today when I didn't get much sleep the night before because of you know who, it doesn't seem to phase me much.
For the whole first six months of Caleb's life, I was stinkin' tired. But the whole time I was stinkin' tired, I also was able to function much better than I thought I was going to. If you know me any little bit, you know I LOVE sleep. I simply adore sleep. I think about the moment when I'm going to be able to crawl under my covers at night all day long. I'm just weird that way. So, Chris and I really thought I was be a basket case when I had to be up with Caleb during the night all the time. But the strange things was, I wasn't. I could actually function pretty decent during all that...which at other times in my life, I couldn't. My reasoning for this was that God knew my weakness of needing TONS of sleep, and he gave me a TON of adrenaline or something to keep me going. There were so many times during that time that I had to will myself to sleep. It's crazy, but I really think God had a big, huge hand in helping me cope. I don't seem to cope real well on my own when I'm tired.
So, I guess today is one of those days that God is helping me cope. It also doesn't hurt that I got to lay around the house all day on MLK day and even got to take a nap with Caleb that day.
So, yay for not feeling too tired!

I celebrate a sleep when ever and where ever I can get it! yea!
I also love my sleep...and Daniel and I have had the same conversation about being up in the middle of the night with a baby. Hopefully I will have a similar experience!
Thank you, LORD, for taking up the slack for Steph...and giving her just what she needs to make the day. Love you, Stephanie :)
