Ok, it only took me about 2 weeks to write the second article, but here it is!
SLEEP! Do any other parents out there remember sleeping in? I don't remember the last time that I got to sleep past 7 a.m.! If only kids realized what the weekend was for! I used to sleep in until 10 or 12 on weekends and now I am lucky if I get to 7. Lately my daughter has been waking me up needing me to do things (like fix her blankets, put her slipper back on, get a drink, etc.). Does anyone know when this will stop?! She can do most of it on her own but refuses to do it at night. I'm not the type of person who does well on broken sleep. I am really looking forward to when I have to force her to get up in the morning (I think!). Maybe I can sleep it too!
I would love to hear anyone else's thoughts and experiences. Let me know I am not alone!

As for your dtr. waking up and asking you for things every time you do these things she's won! So before she goes to sleep you have her check that she has everything she needs and tell her if she wakes you up because she needs these things either don't respond to her or tell her a toy will be taken away for each request..
Good luck!!
You know the whole I need a drink of water, I forgot to tell you something, I gotta go pee, tuck me in again I messed up my covers when I got up to pee.
Now that he is 22 I miss all that stuff.
Note that before I go to those activities there was make dinner, clean up after dinner, watch a little TV with children, get children ready for bed, and take care of pets.
And that was onlt the end to my day. Need I add more?
