Last night was horrible! We had a big storm and Glenn is absolutely terrified of thunder. So every couple of minutes when we had some thunder he would start screaming bloody murder. It was a very long night. I was in his room every couple of minutes. At one point I brought him in our bed with us so I could try and get some sleep. But then he wanted to talk and giggle and annoyed Forest. So back to his room he went… If it wasn’t the thunder it was some other noise. One of the times he was screaming he told me that he heard a sound that went mooo. (it’s funny to think of that one now…) I told him it was just one of the cows in the pasture. We have beef cattle. At one point Forest came in and gave Glenn his toy gun and told him that if he heard a noise that scared him that he should shoot it. That worked for a little bit since he slept for almost 3 hours after that.

By the time Forest got up I had gotten 3 hours of sleep. And was so not looking forward going to work on 3 hours of sleep. I layed in bed for a couple of minutes after Forest got up and I must have fell back asleep because next thing Forest comes in and is jumping on the bed like a little kid. It was kind of funny. He tells me that it’s time to go to work… I look at the clock and I have 5 minutes to get up, dressed, eat, and leave for work. Forest didn’t go to the woods because of the rain and so he watched Glenn and let me sleep. I thought it was so sweet of him.
