Happy Tuesday, Char!
I hope that you’re having a better morning, than your evening was last night. I’ve been trying for such a long time, to get you to understand that staying up so late makes you absolutely miserable the following day. I know you already know this, but it’s a vicious cycle that will repeat itself over, and over and over until you can get a handle on it. If there’s not a parent that is enforcing bedtimes or at the very least, reasonable sleeping patterns, this will continue to keep you wiped out. You’ll keep coming back to my place on Sundays so wired in the evening, that you can’t fall asleep.. then the after-school battle to keep you awake begins, and it just keeps repeating.
This isn’t just about following sensible rules, but also having healthy guidelines for sleep, that you want to follow, for your own good, and piece of mind. I know that you think I’m only upset about your attitude when I tried to wake you up, but, this is more about not wanting you to go through these challenging sleep patterns any longer, when they’re not necessary, and make you struggle so hard, just to lie awake scrolling through your phone endlessly. I’m willing to experiment with rewarding improved sleep habits, if that’s what it takes. :)
Annnnnyway, we’ll get there, it’ll just take some work, and some time. Just like everything else, I believe in you, and I know you can do it.
Don’t forget to head over to the new Insta, and vote on the newest trailer, so we have an idea what to watch this coming week. ;) I love you a ton, and miss you very, very much.
Love,
-Dad
