Open letter to my DD

Dear M,

Sunday was a beautiful day. You slept till 8am, woke up happy, ate well played well, napped fairly well, in your crib even! We went on a walk with Daddy and you had lots of smiles all day. You even went to sleep at 8pm! Great job! However, I'm so sorry to tell you that we were visited by the body snatchers that night. You kept waking up for your bink or because you were stuffy or because you didn't like the tone of daddy's snore or the sound of the ceiling fan or the smell of your swaddle.

But, you still woke up happy Monday morning, so I thought we were in the clear. Until you got tired. Then this banshee baby arrived and she.does.not.like.naps! And try as I might, your normal nap routine went to sh!t (a routine you set for yourself btw) and nothing would work to get you to sleep longer than 30 minutes at a time. Excuse me, but my baby likes to take 3 hour naps! I don't know who this baby is, or why she is pissed at me, but good gravy! And to carry it into Monday night, waking up countless times and even waking up crying this morning, instead of your normal super happy smiles, well, that's just cruel!

So normal M, you can come back anytime now and we'll just forget this whole thing happened.

Love, Mommy

PS - If you could, please tell Daddy that laying in bed saying "shhhhhh" does not count as helping!!
