I have noticed lately that I have a terrible time going to sleep. Though one may mistakenly deduce the reason being the five people tucked into a queen size bed, it is really the excitement over the closeness and comfortable feeling I get when we are all there together. When I finally convinced Mr. Monkey to give this co-sleeping arrangement a try, I fell to sleep much more easily than I normally do with them across the apartment in their own bed. As soon as we were all settled in I was out like a light. I had such a sense of relief and peace. Now all of this changing is going on and I lay awake for a long time thinking. I even catch myself getting up for another hour or so just to look up more writings and information and words of wisdom. It seems I am too happy and inspired to sleep. Go figure.
