Sleep!

This is what I've been thinking about today...

Logic tells me if I put my boys to bed at 7:30pm and they wake up at 6:30am then I should be able to put them to bed at 9:00pm and have them wake up at 8:00am. Right? That makes sense. I'm pretty good at math. It's the same amount of time to sleep, just the hours are slightly different.

Here is reality which I have discovered often trumps logic. We put the boys to bed at 8:30pm, they fall asleep around 9:00pm, and they wake up at 6:30am. They don't nap during the day. I feel they should and I even go so far as to lay them down. I'm sure they laugh at my attempt.

Don't they know it is summer? Don't they understand that mommy is so much nicer if she can just sleep a tad bit more? Don't they know that mommy doesn't go to sleep when they do?

And so the battle continues...Logic vs. Reality
