I got to sleep 7 uninterrupted hours last night!!!!!!
Perhaps this does not seem like much, but I don't remember the last time this happened. Before the sicknesses, Brian would still wake up and hang out for a while in the middle of the night. (I think it's related to getting teeth. I don't have to go to him, but he keeps me awake by making noises every 15 minutes for an hour or so.) Since the plague began, E would randomly cough several times, waking me. And most recently with his digestive illness, Biran's been waking up before 5 because he's been starving but virtually appetiteless.
I think we're almost in the clear. There are some lingering coughs, but the bubby - a shortened version of "chubby bubby" - woke up happy today, drank milk, watched the Little People,* and played with toys. All without tons of fussing! And it was AFTER 5am!!!!!
Praise God for sustaining us through the fussing and helping me to function on very interrupted and short nights of sleep.
And the icing on the cake of this day?
* I let the little guy watch tv, oh yes. Little People videos are really cute. Brian even responds to them with giggles and animal noises!
