Broken People

I think it is possible that we may have broken Mandy yesterday. Our goal was to encourage her to stay home and sleep by snuggling her into submission. She desperately need to rest, and she did. All day! However, when Sam came home Mandy was out of it. Sam fixed dinner since Mandy was waiting for Sam in the big tub. I do not believe she knew it was so late in the day. So she cleaned up while Sam grilled the meat. It was the first signs of her being loopy all day. Then after dinner, Sam encouraged Mandy to go to bed. Those crazy people went to bed very early. I mean, so early Elway and I did not enjoy our evening play time. Well, Mandy fell asleep quickly and she was sound asleep. It was my night to snuggle her, and my job was easy. Even if she did wake up a few times, she quickly feel back asleep.

Sam, however, was a completely different story! He stayed awake forever! I was not sure he would ever fall asleep. He watched TV late into the night and then slept late this morning. Mandy woke up at their normal time ready to eat breakfast, which made me thankful. So, Sam dragged himself out of bed to eat with Mandy, but not long after breakfast, those two crazies went back to bed and slept some more! In fact, I think they might both still be asleep! They are going to sleep the entire day away! Our goal was to keep Mandy home, not turn her into a sleeping machine, and we certainly did not intend to draw Sam into the web of sleep. I am unsure if life will ever be the same. I have done everything possible to wake these two people, but they are like rocks—totally unresponsive. They must really need some sleep.
