Momsomnia

Is it called insomnia when it's a whole gang of kids that keep you up all night??

Some on your mind because they start school today for the first time. Some of them in your home, deciding in the middle of the night, to play musical beds. And others in your bed, literally, kicking you in the face??

I don't think so.. insomnia would definitely imply that some inward issues were keeping you up all night.

I have momsomnia ... the inability to sleep because of children!!

Shakespeare!! (Did you know that Shakespeare invented over 3,000 words and phrases in his writing? Complex things like 'green eyed monster' referring to the concept of jealousy. He even coined words like 'liveable' by simply putting together two words that made sense as one.

So, as I told my students every time I purposefully (or accidentally mostly) made up a word SHAKESPEARE!! ;)

I hope my momsomnia is cured by an afternoon nap!!
