Silent Night (Mummy style)
In the interest of the up and coming season…
Silent Night (Ode to Ivy).
Silent night, yeah right!
Mummy’s not calm,
Daddy has spite.
Round the clock the female child,
Wakes the household, the parents are wild!
Sleep, for the love of God, Slee -eep
Slee - eep, try counting some sheep!
Silent night, I’d get a fright
if you slept through the night.
Radiant beams from my rested face,
Just would seem too out of place.
Sleep is for - or the wea - eak!
Sleep, I could for a week.
Silent Night, Noah just might,
if you let your dreams take flight.
Cranky toddlers from dawn to dusk
Daddy fee - eels that he is just husk.
Perhaps Phenergan’s the answer,
To a slee-eep of heavenly peace.
Silent night, Holy night.
It would be, if you’d just sleep tight.
Now you’re two, could you ju - ust sleep through?
I’m sure we could find something else to do,
Than settle you back into be -ed,
Just rest your weary head.
That made me giggle….(sorry!)

You have real talent. I am going to practise this so that I can sing it to Amy. Do you think it will help?
I hope she sleeps for you soon.

Ha, when my first daughter was a baby I used to say ’sleep is for sissies’. Then I had twins and completely lost my sense of humour about sleep deprivation for a good two years!
Repeat: this too shall pass, this too shall pass… And good luck with getting some rest.
Thanks for visiting my blog today, it’s always nice to see new ‘faces’.

That was priceless. Thanks for the reminder that I am not alone. It does get slightly better as they get older:) Hold onto that if you can in the hazy that is your daytime life:)
