Trying times

Today was the first day Benjamin has been himself in a week. He is getting over his second cold in a month and is now feeling much better. He slept 7 hours in a row last night and woke up happy today (and so did I!). I was beginning to have a really tough time. Sleep deprivation really catches up after awhile and is not good for the mood or the soul. Thankfully, God does not give us more than we can handle...I was about at the point of not being able to handle much more. On top of it, we are looking for a new babysitter. We have some good leads and are trusting that we will find the right person to watch Benjamin.
On a bright note, here are some pictures of Ben's friends. At our last swim class this week, Francis sat right down in the locker while we were getting ready :) What a cutie! The other picture is of Ben and Asher, who are two weeks apart.
