4:53 this morning I wake up to hear Caroline whimpering over the baby monitor. I hope that she is just having a bad moment and goes back to sleep. 4:58 she starts to howl and chant \u201cMama.\u201d I get up and go into her room. She is at the end of her crib in hysterics. I pick her up and she pushes against my chest when I go to sit in the rocking chair. I put her down. She runs from her room and into the hallway as if the Bogeyman took up residence in her crib. She is still crying and chanting. I grab a diaper and get her downstairs so Peter and Ariel can sleep. I put her on the couch and change her diaper. She is shivering. I get a bottle and sit on the couch with her in my lap. I rub her back and stroke her cheek while quietly singing all the songs I sang to her when she was little. Slowly she calms down and relaxes. I sit with her until she goes back to sleep about 5:35. I manage to get her back into her bed and go back to mine where I sleep until I woke up at 8:38. She woke up about 9:45. I have no idea what happened but she needed me and I was there for her.<\/p>\n
I managed to wrestle the coat into completion after a few blood sacrifices to the sewing gawds. I need to redo a couple of things but I am going to move onto the next project so I don\u2019t go mad. I am missing the pattern I wanted to use next. I think it is in my studio. I plan to check later today. So onto the next part of my mad dash to Shoreleave. I am always proud of what I did after the sketch is done. It is just some days during the creation that I don\u2019t like my work.<\/p>\n
I need to get some ducks in a row for DragonCon. I am still not listed as a guest yet and I know I am. I have got to get some stuff finished for the art show but I don\u2019t think that is happening until after Shoreleave but we will see.<\/p>\n
I hope everyone has a good weekend.<\/p>\n
I am grateful to my family for their support when the fabric doesn\u2019t cooperate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
