Sleeping

We knew jet lag would be an issue to face for us when we got home but actually living through it takes much patience and for us that patience has been required at midnight each night since we got home.

Jack seems to be waking up at the same time each night, wide awake and ready to play! We, on the other hand are having no problem sleeping through the night so our bodies are experiencing a strong conflict of interests! He is sleeping just two hours each afternoon for his nap, which is less than what he would sleep normally but he is still waking up at midnight and then several times afterward, we find him crying out, needing to be settled to sleep again.

Any of you, who have been through this with a kid his age, and can shed some light on how to help him cope, we welcome your comments!

Sorry, I never experienced this with any of the "Potter kids", but I will pray, as it has to be frustrating when you are so tired. Is God teaching you patience?? Hopefully, this soon will pass!
Love ya,
Mom P.

I would recommend talking to Rachel and Lisa, as both of them have had to deal with similar circumstances.
