peace

 
 
 
 
if only E was this sweet, and peaceful every time she fell asleep...instead it's a battle of wills, and a test of patience, and still most of us wake up tired the next morning. i don't really remember the struggle with Zachary, at least not as acutely as i feel the struggle with E right now. I know Zachary wasn't a great sleeper at first. I remember he would wake up the moment you even started to lean over to put him in his bed. I also remember the light bulb moment when we realized that we really needed to get him down way earlier than we had been doing. But I remember that once we got him down for the night, he usually stayed there. Elara definitely benefits from going to bed early, but has yet to sleep through the night. She has done 4 hours, but it's rare that she sleeps that many hours in a row, especially if she's in her own bed. We're working on it, but we're pretty tired!
