I am trying to do lots of breathing and trying to sleep through the night.  Writing down all of the things helps a little bit.  Not on the list are eating dinner that isn't pizza every day and also saying goodbye to the gorgeous baby and not crying to much.  If you pray, pray for us.  If not, just hold us in the light and send us happy thoughts.
