I've been in and out of sleep for the past 3 hours. I keep waking up from the same basic nightmare: an older (10 or so) kid is threatening C and I continuously handle it in a way that leaves her dead or paralyzed.
The waking up part is a byproduct of the room we're sleeping in. I don't known what's in here, but I'm very allergic to it. My throat is scratchy, my ears itch, my eyes are watering, and I keep sneezing. It didn't start until I made the bed last night, so it must be in here somewhere. C is sleeping well, though, so that's good. I'll have to make a run for some antihistamine (maybe benadryl since I'll be sleeping anyway) today so I can survive tonight.
Yesterday was a good day. C warmed up to my grandparents pretty quickly. We went exploring a bit too. Than my brother and sister-in-law came over ith my two neices and we played and had dinner. It's so awwesome to watch how C interacts with other, older, kids. Being around them makes her want to run more and be held less.
She is such a joy. Nothing compares to the happiness I feel when I see her happy and interested in her environment.
