i know you have missed us… alittle perhaps?

here it is 3:50a and we have been up since 12:36a, Korey sleeping exactly 101 minutes and myself, oh perhaps, 7:45p to about 9:51p as I was extremely tired, and i guess today again will drag my body around as I have a few errands to do and a dr appt later this morning and then it will be time for Korey to return home from school and the world goes on… he is yelling out “hospital” over and over, with an occasional “cupcake” – can’t quite figure out the correlation between the 2!

i hear the water in the bathroom, he is brushing his teeth, tongue for about the hundredth time this am, he definitely has the cleanest teeth, mouth, freshest smelling breathe!! ok, now am hearing 4:03a start “take a shower”, screaming, “cupcake” the beloved “soda”, “I want soap” ( this in reference to shower!) screaming, “cupcake”, “hotdog” “go home”, “doctor”, “chocolate” “hotdog” “chicken” “oowww” “cupcake” screaming, screaming, “cupcake” “aahhh” scream, screeching, “ooowww” “pass gas” scream, scream, “oowww” “ooowww”, scream “I want chocolate” “pass gas” “hotdog”, – end time 4:07a… he continues with his list! this is a usual occurrence during our early morning along with our favorite “beep beep” and “raise hand” jingles. he yells and screeches so much that he gives himself a hoarse voice! He is now pacing, with his backpack on, skipping through the house, as if this were a lovely spring afternoon and we were in a beautiful meadow filled with dandelions!!!!!!!!!!!! aaaaaahhhhhh!!!!!!!

how Kenny & Kileigh sleep through this melodic outpouring of Korey’s is beyond my comprehension!!!  I may have to study the phenomenon and report back!! that is after I get my “beauty” sleep in ( at this point I would need a complete body and face overhaul/lift!)

 

I am going to go now and try to quietly occupy my bed, wishing I could “rest my eyes” even for a nano second, knowing I can’t, listen to the skipping foot noises and laughter and screaming of my “energizer” Korey!!!
