I love sleep. My life has the tendency to fall apart when I'm awake, you know? -Ernest Hemmingway

I haven't been sleeping much lately.
Between Brooks spitting his paci out, then immediately realizing he urgently wants it back, and Lincoln thinking that 1, 3, and 5 am are the best times to ask the days most important questions, 
I'm averaging about 4.5 hours a night.
 You know whats worse than having the piss scared out of you by waking up to find a 4 year old staring at you in the dark? 
That 4 year old wanting to discuss, at depth, what happens if you mix milk and water together.
The fuck? This isn't science class and I'm not Bill Nye, 
GO BACK TO SLEEP!!
But seeing the love these 2 have for each other is almost...ALMOST...worth being awake for.
Just kidding, I'd pick the sleep any day.
