I Wear My Sunglasses at Night


I'm breaking the monotony. I'm just glad Philip has something to talk about. Last night, Abby fell asleep with her sunglasses on. I know you can't really tell that her eyes are actually closed, but I can tell you that she was snoring. I have so many funny pictures of Abby sleeping. She just falls asleep in the most uncomfortable, yet funny, poses. Lisa, I will have to ask you how you did your photo collage, so I can show how funny it really is. Then again, she doesn't sleep sitting up like Whitney did. I have a question for all of you moms out there. Do your children have really vivid dreams and nightmares? Is this a common occurance? Abby is always crying and yelling out in her sleep, and will often wake up with tears in her eyes. I have no idea what she is dreaming about. I monitor what she watches on tv, but I still have no idea where she is getting these ideas from. Is there any way to stop the bad dreams, or at least alleviate them somewhat? Man, this is a boring post-but I don't care, I could use some input.

You make me laugh! Abby and Whitney... man the two of them are the best sleepers ever. I can barely sleep well in my own bed!
As for nightmares... My kids never have them like that. Although I have really good ones about fighting with Richard. I wake up all mad at him and everything. He hates it. No idea how to stop it. I'll ask Rich... maybe he'll have an idea.

Maybe you should tell Neil to stop beating them...ha good burn huh? The only reason they can sleep so well is because they are pure in heart. The rest of us have all this guilt and other stuff on our minds. I have nightmares too. I wake up thinking I am married, have kids, or (my least favorite) am tracting on my mission.

Add on...to clarify, I am not afraid of having kids. I want them just not while Im not married. At that point I would have other issues like my dad asking himself what he did wrong in raising me.

Sonya, I totally agree with the fighting part. I do that, too. The sad part is, is that I don't know what is real and fiction. I wake up thinking I am still mad, and have to be convinced that nothing happened. I've also had dreams that I have lost my kids in a busy place. Now that is scary.

I want to know who your married to in your nightmares Phil! Kids while not married arn't the scariest part of that situation.. that would mean that you would have a baby mama! Can you imagine that nightmare!!
Rich wanted me to tell Niel that they have nightmares because of paternal DNA and his must be off (HA!).

Neil Sharp said...

I know. It's cuz I'm fat. Thanks Sonya again for confirming my insecurities. I've always felt bad for Abby when people tell me she's a lot like me. I think it's best that a fat man like me, with such bad genetics, not be allowed to procreate anymore, I've already ruined two children's lives (one actually thinks being fat is ok), I shouldn't be allowed to destroy anymore.

For anyone else who reads this...ignore Neil. He is trying to be funny. He is not serious. Later, I'm sure he will post that he is in fact serious-but he lies!

Neil Sharp said...

I guess because I'm fat, I'm a liar. Everything is becoming so clear to me now. You just wait 'til I get home...

Then we can sit down and discuss all my faults and how I can be a better person. The only way for me to break through my insecurities to attack them head on. With the love and support of my beautiful wife and her family, I think I might be able to make it. I'm going to be a new man. First on my list will be to lose about 150lbs so that people will actually think I'm a good person. Being fat allows people to believe that I abuse my children and am a liar. If I lose the weight, people will be able to see me and judge me for who I really am. See, it's not the fault of people that think I'm a bad guy, it's my fault for being fat. How can people see through the fat to see the person within actually has feelings? I'm sorry for being offended and I hope you can all forgive me.

You all came from me. enough said. I give most people nightmares. Jake S. used to have really bad nightmares and when he would get sick he would halucinate about stuff. You guys are crazy.
