After a really long night without much sleep because of two crying children and one interesting moment around 3am that had me falling down the stairs with Charlotte in my arms, three of my children are now awake.

Three of my children are crying.

The two that I’ve touched so far have fevers.

One has had a dose of Tylenol already.

My knees are hardwood-floor burned from my skid across it.

One has been sent back to bed. Starting to think we should all go back to bed and try again in an hour.

It’s 8am. The weather forecast includes a heat advisory. The high for the day is 105+. Going to be a fun one. Or something like that.
