"Consider it pure joy, my brothers, when you face trials of many kinds, for you know the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you are complete, lacking nothing." -James 1:2-4

Awake at 2 am, eyes burning.

I had a bad dream. It went something like, someone stole Johns truck from a kids birthday party and we went and found out where it was and stole it back from some dude at an apartment complex and it ended up in a high speed chase down 540 where our friend was in the bed of the truck because we were giving him a ride home on the way back. Then the guy we stole it back from opened fire on the truck with a pistol and lit us up, while Eric was in the back, of course, while I was driving. Ugh. Stupid dream, now I can't sleep. I know, I'm a baby. Now I'm creeped out and the dark is scaring me.

I went and got Camden out of bed and put her in bed with me, I know, like a four year old can really protect me. Maybe it is like my mom senses will kick in with her in here and I feel tougher and more equipped to deal with obstacles, you know made up ones in my dream. I know, dumb.

Before the game tonight we had chick Fil a. Their toys were recalled due to safety, so they were giving ice cream. Harper had to sit and watch Joie and Camden eat it. I told her she couldn't have any because she didn't go to sleep and she said she would go to sleep so she could get some next time. Tonight she was much more passive when it came to bedtime. It was 10 by the time we got home, but regardless, I didn't have to get her back in bed more than once. We will see if this continues tomorrow when I attempt to put her in bed at 8.

All in all, Camden's birthday spent at the Naturals game was a success. Even though I had to work by representing the organization Smile for a Lifetime, having friends there to corral children helped. Thank you to Jeremy and Alicia, Sarah, and Brandi.

Okay, my eyes are burning because they are so tired, and without a computer to use, they are having to work to hard and focus on this phone.

John: How do you lay them down and they just roll over and go to sleep? It's like you are the Kid Whisperer. Ugh, tell me your secret....now!!! :)
