Another 3 a.m.

finds me sitting at the computer with Stacia in my lap. The children had asked for a sleepover. They used to do this each Friday night in previous homes. ALL the children would pile into the family room with sleeping bags, pillows, blankets, snacks and movies. They loved it. This home doesn't have a family room and I've not wanted to have them all sleeping in the living room. The older boys don't seem to want to participate any longer. Arielle misses this routine. She asked last night if they could have a sleepover in the BOY'S room (younger boys). This works. I think it will become a part of the weekly routine again.

Stacia, however, seems to prefer her own bed, thus another bout of productivity at 3 a.m.

I began going back and copying blog entries from this computer to my journal in Word. I quit doing that when MY computer broke and I began using THIS thing in September 06 - but I think it is time to get my journal udated even if it isn't on MY computer. ::snort:: An hour well spent.....but now Stacia is asleep, I'm tired from two nights of 3 a.m. and all the work yesterday, I think I'll catch a couple of more hours.

I love the sleepover idea. My two older girls did that one night this summer.

How cute. I can remember doing sleepovers when we were small...taking turns in the different rooms.

We like to have sleep togethers downstairs in the winter the few times that we start a fire in the fireplace! The kids LOVE it!
