Oh my gosh, if it wasn't so cute sometimes I swear I would strangle her. I can't help but laugh when she does this, even on no sleep!

It is pretty cute, we both had a few giggles too. I snuggled her while she sang, and then she finally fell back to sleep after an hour and a half.

Your child is sitting in the exersaucer at four in the morning playing while you doze on the couch. Or you see every hour on the clock for a few nights in a row.

...your mom sends you a text saying "Three more sleeps!" (in reference to our upcoming trip) and you snigger. Sleeps? Maybe three more nights, but there will be little sleep involved...
