A few more bumps in the road.....

Here I am writing again about not getting enough sleep! This is seriously starting to kill me. I am completely optimistic about my day and then I have a night were I get very little sleep. I have figured out now that it's not the waking up so many times that is hard it's the falling back to sleep that is brutal. I know that "this too shall pass" but I feel like I am being defeated by it. I wake up and then about 30 minutes later I am ready to go back to bed instead of tackle the day. I am going to keep trying and figure out how to beat this. This is just a bump in the road that I need to slow down and get over. I keep thinking back to the time when I had to climb a really steep hill and mid way through I wanted to quit. I kept telling myself that I couldn't do it. It was just too hard. No matter how I looked at it, I couldn't quit. I either had to finish the hill in front of me or climb another hill to get back home. So I put one foot in front of the other and slowly I made it up to the top of the hill. I felt so good when I made it. I thought to myself "I can do hard things!" I need to remember this right now. I can take care of 7 children. It is really hard. It is the hardest thing I have done so far in my life. I am responsible for the care of 7 lives! On top of this I am Young Women's President. I am having a really hard time right now. I feel like I am dropping the ball on so many important things right now. I hope that I can look back on this time in my life and laugh because it is sure not funny in the moment. Well here it is 10:35 and I must head to bed and see if I can get some sleep.
