snap back to reality

I have to share this story of laying in bed last night.  Meade was with me.  Every two minutes, it seemed, she was saying "Mama" for something else.  Can I have some water?  Do you have any snacks?  Does she have school tomorrow?  When are we going to the mountain house again?  

After the last "Mama" I screamed "what do you want?"  She didn't say anything so I looked over at her.  She was startled by my response and said "Will you hold my hand?"

Ugh, of course I will.  Here I was getting so frustrated and she only wanted to be closer to me.  I've got to get better patience with the children.  In fact, they are teaching me more now than I could ever imagine.
