...right when I can't take any more of Alyssa's shenanigans, she melts my heart with a big kiss on the lips. (Missi, as usual, you are right: one week, she's a grouch who wakes up three times a night; the next week she's an angel, sleeping peacefully through the night. Go fig.)
...even in the bleakest moments, there can be comfort in little things.
...people can step up to the plate and surprise you.
...you can fall in love all over again.
...a heart really can grow, a la The Grinch.
...things could always be worse. A lot worse.
...you can be exhausted and ready to sleep, but not ready to face the silence of the night.
Off to watch something until I can fall asleep.

It's funny how your kids can amaze you...

It's beautiful, poetic.
