Late Nights, Early Mornings, Sleep Texting, Missing My Sweetheart

I realize that several of my late night thoughts come to the tips of my fingers shortly after I have ingested the magical ambien. And believe you me....magical it is!

I had such a wonderful conversation with my sweet Bryndi Boo tonight. Good thoughts about life, what we need to do to succeed and some choices that can definitely make the road a little rougher. She has amazing insight and such tender feelings. The tender feelings are due to Claire, the little girl that Bryn started nannying when Claire was 3 weeks old, possibly going to preschool this fall. This doesn't leave a lot of time for Bryn to continue to be a big part of her life....and of Nate's. Bryn once put a phrase with a picture of the kids that said..."the littlest things that the biggest part of my heart." She truly loves these kids as if they were her own.
I totally understand what she is saying. I, too, have fallen in love with the kids and enjoy moments of pretend grandparenting. I look forward to phone calls from Claire giggling and telling what she has been up to that day and hearing about brother playing with friends or doing his homework.

Kirk is gone this weekend to a shot show in Vegas and he is having a blast! I find I can get some major things accomplished while he's away and try to make every minute count by going to bed late, getting up early and not really stopping in-between. It makes missing the sweetheart go by a little faster.
I think my phalanges are about to start the texting dance so I must end my thoughts and let the rest of them fill my dreams. Love to you all.

Gena,
I so adore and admire your never ending love for all and energy. You are an amazing woman, friend, wife and mother. Bryn gets her loving heart from you. And your brain is just fine, because it is directly linked to your heart. We don't always have to understand everything. Especially, a license plate. Don't sweat the small stuff. Loves Margie
