Ramblings of a Tired Mom
Coffee and Late Nights
Drinking coffee at 10:00pm. At least it is on a Saturday night.
I have set myself up for failure, but sleep will come with a fight.
I am writing at the dawn of a new day. Sounds beautiful right?
The mindless words of a sleep deprived mama who tries with all her might.
.
Why am I still typing. I ask this question in my head.
I would be much better off at least lying in my bed.
Or quietly reading, and then able to dream about what I read.
But I continue typing, typing, typing instead.
.
My son has started a bad habit
Of playing late into the night on his tablet
He is currently playing a game on it
While we are in the living room fully lit
.
Tomorrow morning I know I will regret
How long we stayed up, awake and set
A new bedtime routine that would eventually let
Our bodies think we did not need the rest we did not get.
