The worst moment in my day is when the peaceful escape of the night’s sleep is suddenly replaced by grim reality.
It's overwhelming a lot of the time.
I'm finding lately that the best part of the day is that 10 seconds when you wake up before you remember what's going on.
Our 5 and 8 year old daughters have taken to sleeping with us these days in our big bed and it's actually been pretty comforting to be honest. I look over at those peaceful faces and remember why we're all doing this.
