It's true what they say

Before you have kids most can sleep through the night all night long. Once you have kids forget it! Everyone says that you will never have another good nights sleep until the kids are 18. But ya know I think even then I wont have a good nights sleep.
I used to sleep like the dead, but not since I have had kids. The littlest things will wake me up now most of the time. Even if my kids are staying at their grandparents house I still don't get a good nights sleep, I get a little better nights sleep but not great.
I'm a worrier. I worry about everything all the time. I try very hard not to and to pray about everything that I'm worrying about. But I'm only human. So I worry. For some reason my head always starts to think the worst. I can't stand that about myself really. But that's who I am so I deal with it.
Before I had kids I stayed up late, when out with my friends. Went camping and would stay up until the sun was up then go to bed. Now 8pm rolls around and I'm beat, I'm ready for bed.
So yes it's true what they say, when you have kids you will not have another good nights sleep for 18 years. Well I think longer then 18 years but I'm not there yet to be sure.
