The sweetness of my boy


Alex: Mom, why aren't you sleeping?
Me: Do you want me to be sleeping?
Alex: Do you want to be sleeping?
Me: Yes, yes I do.
Alex: So go to sleep.
Me: I can't Alex.
Alex: Yes you can. Take a day off.
Me: I can't, I need to clean the house.
Alex: No, mom you should take a day off.

There are certain times this boy melts my heart to pieces. 
He has such a wonderful sweetness to him, just like his daddy.

{{No I didn't end up taking a nap or attending to the MUCH needed cleaning -- we're heading to the happiest place on earth...aka...Ikea ;) }}

I'm truly not a Windau (my maiden name) when it comes to my alcohol consumption. I put my catholic roots to shame. I'm ok with that. I'm not a mean drunk, but a purely giggly & say inappropriate thing drunk. Today stung. It stung hard. Last Tuesday we got a call for a little 5 month old baby. Technically we got a call for 4 boys but for reasons that I will not share, we could only say yes to little guy. And then there was waiting. And more waiting because our agency couldn't find a home for 4 of the little guys, they came from a sibling group of 6. All 6. Boys. That would be headed for permanent custody. In my mind all the things lined up. I had prayed for an orphan. I had been learning about how to bond with a baby in the adoption sens...
