I Tried But I Could Not Relax
March 12th, 2010 | by admin |Last weekend my kids went over to their grandparents house and spent the night. I thought it would be a night of freedom for my wife and I. While it started out that way, that is certainly not how the night ended. As we lay down to go to bed, I felt sure I would finally get a good nights rest.
The funny thing was that even though there were no children at home, I still could not rest peacefully. Every time I would fall asleep, I would have some dream about the children. First it was my son jumping on me and then it was my son waking up crying in the middle of the night. Though they were not there, the kids still kept me up. Try as I might, I just could not relax.
