Unsent Letters: Day 10

I'm such a slacker...but isn't that why I'm doing this? To learn some self-discipline?



Day 10 - Someone You Don't Talk To As Much As You'd Like



Hmmm...I could think of a few people...especially considering I rarely talk to anyone now that I spend all my free time sneaking in naps since my kid doesn't sleep much at night. But let's go with...my bro...



K.,

RETURN MY TEXTS. Just kidding...ok, not really. But seriously, I wish we talked more. I wish we got to hang out more. When Mom & Dad are gone, you're the only family I'll have left. So maybe someday we'll get to hang out more or talk more but until then, it's good to see ya when I do. Love ya lil bro,
Me

Day 11 - A Deceased Person You Wish You Could Talk To

*Actually this is to 4 people...both sets of grandparents who I never got to know.*

Grandparents,
I wish we had gotten the chance to meet and get to know each other. I don't know what it's like to have grandparents but from what people tell me, it probably would have been a wonderful experience. I would have liked to know what life was like for you when you were growing up. I would have asked about your parents, my great-grandparents. I would also have enjoyed hearing your perspective on my parents and what they were really like growing up, hahahaha!
You have 3 younger great-grandchildren now plus the 2 older ones. I know I didn't know you but I think you would be overjoyed with all of them. The 3 little ones who I know well are great kids and so much fun!
Just so you know, your kids, (my parents), did a great job raising me, (in my opinion at least). You should be proud! Maybe one day we will get to meet after all for a big family reunion!
Until then...
Your Granddaughter

Not much else to write. Still working on getting L. to sleep through the night but there does seem to be improvement. He only wakes up once or twice at most and is down to 20 minutes or less of crying/screaming before he's asleep again. Last night it only took 7 minutes one time. Not bad. When we put him down for naps during the day and right at bedtime, it's definitely gotten much easier. Mostly he gives a few whimpers then is out. We can even put him in the crib still half awake and he'll just go to sleep on his own. PRAISE JESUS! LOL...let's hope it just continues to improve even more!
