oh boy...

So, our son comes in our room this morning, he can't sleep. Of course, being the thoughtful person my wife is, she invites him in. He is being very considerate and whispering, trying not to wake me, I'm sure. It was too late for that. Usually to get woke up before I've had 8+ hours of sleep really pisses me off. But when I looked at the clock and saw that it was just after 3 am, I realized that he wasn't making this shit up. I laid in bed with them for a few more minutes, seeing if my brain would turn back off. Alas, no. The enemy had been stirred and there was no turning it off now. I am usually one that reads my body very well. There are things it needs and it lets me know, this morning sleep is not one of those things. There is a higher calling at work this morning and I know what's going on.
I'm not an easy person to wake up, ask anyone who knows me. So when I get woke up, it shocks me. He was so cute tho, the first thing I heard was a gentle tap on the door, with no response the door eased open, just slightly. I can just see him peering thru the crack. "Mommy," he whispered, "I can't sleep." Awww... What I would have given for a mother that would have let me sleep with her when I was jolted awake at 3 am. No, instead I had to sneak into her room and burrow myself into the blankets, being careful not to be detected. Which he has done plenty of times also, I might add. She softly tells him it's okay and come lay down. I can just feel his little heart slow it's pace as he crawls into bed and snuggles with his very warm mother. The whispering continues for a moment until my dumb ass piped up, totally ruining the cuteness of the whole thing. *scoff* Figures.
I can be a complete retard somedays, ya know?
What else could I do but let them be?
I'm sure there's a reason that I'm awake anyway. I balanced the budget, caught up on some blogs, finished some stuff for work and checked my email and blogged, and it's only 4am. I've already gotten a lot done today. DAMN! I am that good!
Peace out, Ya'll. Have an awesome day. I'll see you on the flip side!
