So here's the new sleeping situation:
Ezra has been waking up with nightmares, and I think this is actually why he is waking in the wee early hours of the morning. He has also decided he needs to sleep with not just Calliou, but Teddy Bear and his Bible. We have decided everyone get's better sleep if we just go in and do what works- either read a story from the Bible, or pray with him and tell him we love him. He is fine after this and sleeps fine for the rest of the night. The nightmares are usually no big deal- he sometimes remembers them and talks about them in the morning, sometimes not, and he isn't so shaken that he's scared all night or anything. I've decided all kids eventually learn how to get themselves back to sleep, and I need to stop worrying about it. He may be 17 before this happens without my help, but I somehow doubt it.
And now a tired picture of us- mostly because I never take or put pictures of me with him on here.
