This, my friends, tops my list of saddest pictures I will ever take. Does this look like a boy who would say, "Look Mom! I did it! I learned to fall asleep on my own!"
No. This looks like a boy who collapsed upon himself out of pure exhaustion and defeat. This looks like a boy who thought to himself, "Why... why has this women, who I have come to love and trust, abandoned me in this time of need?"
Did I do this because I think Dr. Ferber is a genius? No. I did this out of desperation! I did this to save my family. After weeks of no sleep, grouchy mornings, and just not being much fun for my other children, they are probably about ready to "Ferberize" me.
So... no... I'm not proud of what I have done, but at times you have to choose the lesser of two evils. So now as I write this, my sweet little child who can do no wrong in my eyes, is laying in a heap in his crib wondering... Where's my mother?

Is it bad that I'm laughing? That's just the cutest picture. Hilarious. Is this today or yesterday? How did it go today?
Hahahaha! That is a great picture and even better commentary! Good times I get to look forward to!
Seriously, where did the time go and how fast he has grown? So much change since the last time we saw him. This is when I think you are two far away, but then I always think that. You know what I want and you know what I can't have, my family close together, always.
Well, if it makes you feel better, Zander has probably resented me his whole life, because we needed sleep along time ago and he fought for a while. Actually, now...he is a great sleeper. Trev will forgive you and love you the next morning...because you are a fantastic mother. Its good for them...and you. Now get some sleep girl. I think it is a darling picture of him...he is so stinkin' cute.
And just think what a happier baby he is when his mom is better rested. Has it continued to get better? I hope so!
