Cold and cloudy
Regular December weather. Baby kept me up till 3 o’clock last night and I feel like the last rose of summer today. Took a little nap this afternoon but the children running in and out kept me from getting much rest. Of course, the baby slept all day.
(I love the description Grandma made for how she felt… “the last rose of summer”.
Sounds like a typical day for a busy mother, trying to get some rest while her baby sleeps through oblivious to the havoc she causes when she stays up all night!)

It's so interesting to me that babies really were the same back then as they are now - days and nights mixed up...
ReplyDeleteCarol! Thanks for dropping by, this is facinating! Isn't it funny how your grama calls her daughter, "Baby"?!
ReplyDeleteI am off to read some more!!!
babies are the same the world over,and in times long past. Just remember the old saying "this too, shall past" tho it's hard to remember when you're dead tired.
