They Are Coming To Take Me Away, Haha....

My father used to have an old record with that song on it. "They're coming to take me away, haha...they're coming to take me away hehe, hoho, to the funny farm..." Haven't heard that song in ages. Strange that it's what came to mind at about 4:00am last night when I was trying to get Elana to finally go to sleep. I know I was lucky with my first two girls, both of which started sleeping most of the night almost right after birth. Not so with this one. In fact, she wouldn't even consider going to sleep last night until so late that I consider it morning. Ashamed as I am do admit it, if the men in the white coats HAD showed up last night I think I would have gotten down on bended knee and begged to be locked away. In fact, the only thing that kept me from picking up the phone and calling the men in the white coats myself was the undeniable reality that if I am gone all of the parenting responsibilities go to Kevin...And as much as I want my girls to learn and grow I do now want them learning math via an online poker site or eating their weight in Cheese and Salsa. Guess I will stay put...

Do all men think that cheese, chips and salsa make a well-rounded meal?! Wow. I feel your pain.
