Many Little Links: The Middle of the Night Crying Edition

If you're a parent, you know how it usually goes down. You've either had an exhausting day and are finally settling in to a sound sleep or you are staying up late desperately trying to get something done.

Then, in an instant, your plans for the night change because a child is crying.

As usual, I am up late. This time, it is baking cookies for a retreat. Poor Molly woke up screaming about leg pain. (This is not the first time she has complained about the same thing -- almost always in the evening or at night.)

She is back to bed now, but only after a very traumatic event of trying to drink some Tylenol.

My cookies are finally almost done (and I only almost burnt one pan in all the craziness that happened), and I'll close out with sharing some links that I have enjoyed lately.

Poor Molly. I hope it is just growing pains. Morgan has had them and still has them. Sometimes, I see her come out of her bedroom in the morning with an icepack. Thanks for the links....love the doorframe one. Too bad I didn't know this when we were redoing our kitchen door in the house this summer. Hmm, I'll have to think of something else. ;)

As I was reading this I thought..Thank God my little ones haven't gotten a cold in a few weeks...as soon as I finished that sentence I heard the dreaded hacking and coughing and this morning they both have a cold. Comes to show you life is pretty uncertain at times when your a parent..haha. Great post
