I traveled home sans Brian this trip...
and since I didnt come equipped with my usual bed partner
and considering that bed space was at a premium...
I was assigned to bunk with three year old Jacob.
Yeah...here is how that went...
3:30 am:
Jacob- Is it wake up time, Mommy?
Me- No honey, not yet. Close your eyes and go back to sleep.
(I played the part of Mommy, not wanting to upset the child + I was too tired to explain)
3:45 am:
Jacob- Mommy, I'm tursty.
Me- (reluctantly) okay, I'll go get you a drink of water.
Jacob- (eagerly slurps down an entire glass of water)
Me- Goodnight, honey. (hoping he doesnt wet the bed...)
4:00 am:
Jacob- (whimpering) Where is Woopert? (Rupert, the teddybear)
Me- Right here, baby. Now go back to sleep.
4:15 am:
Jacob- I'm hungry.
Me- (thinking to myself - maybe if I pretend to be asleep...)
4:30 am:
Jacob- Is it wake up time?
Me- Not yet. You can get up when Emma & Madie get up.
4:45 am:
Jacob- I'm hungry, I'm ready for my breakfast.
Me- (oh, lord)
5:00 am:
Jacob- I WANT MY MOMMY! (in a desperate whimper that is threatening to become an all out wail)
Me- Yes, dear heart, lets go find your Mommy! (I deposited the hungry, bear toting tot in his parents room)
and that was just the first night...

That is so funny! Sounds like Little Jacob has the same schedule as Little Samara. Way too early!
