Today was a good reminder of why being a parent can be a roller-coaster. Although there are ups and downs, the final feeling is that of exhilaration. Well, for me it is. For some it might just be the sudden need to vomit.

Welcome to our regularly-scheduled lazy day. The day in which I hand off my son to other people who love him.
OK, so it’s not completely like that, but it is to a certain degree.
Morning: the usual. Except that his nap was crap-tacular and I didn’t get any sleep when he finally went down.

In the morning, he decided he was ready for a nap after only about 30 mins of being awake. Works for me! We both fell asleep together in the La-Z-Boy. He was asleep for over an hour when Grammy came through the front door for her visit. By this time, he was already sleeping lightly. The fuss from the dogs woke him up the rest of the way; that’s OK, though, he was pretty much done.
