In the words of my favorite character on TV, Golden Girls' Sophia Patrillo "Picture it"...it was 2:30 am this morning....our apartment. We were all sound asleep until Parker woke up crying, wanting "milk milk milk". It is unfortunate for him that he has two nut cases for parents.
Because we were so soundly sleeping, we were also deep in our own dreams. Jon was dreaming that Parker's cd that plays all night in his room had been replaced by a cd featuring the sound of a crying baby. He dreamt that Parker had woken up, but every time he fell back asleep, the cd of the crying baby woke him up again.
I was busy dreaming that I had lost the ability to tell time.
So poor Parker wakes up and instead of being the caring and attentive parents we usually are in the middle of the night, rushing to meet his needs as quickly and efficiently as possible so we can all go back to bed, we carried on this conversation:
Parker: "WAAAAAH WAAAAAH"
Emily: "I dont know what to do! Is it morning? Am I supposed to go get him?"
Jon: "Its just a tape, go back to sleep. I can't take it out now"
Parker: "WAAAAAAAAAAAAH WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH"
Emily: "I don't know if it is time to go get him. Is he hungry?"
Jon: "I can't turn it off!!!"
Poor poor Parker Jay....after a minute or two we figured out that he was awake and he, I am happy to say, got his milk and went right back to sleep. It wasn't until late this afternoon that Jon and I put together the pieces of what happened!

Oh my! I really miss our days in Patterson and Sims when we would get back from our morning classes, get lunch, and come back to the room to watch the Golden Girls and Mad About You! That was so much fun! :) :) Great times!
