Saga XXV: Night & Day

Saga XXIII: Moving Down
June 9th, 9amish: Last night Scott started clearing up nicely. We tucked him in after keeping him awake during the day as much as we could (so that sleep really well at night, Lord willing), and headed off early to sleep.

So one day we decided to turn the radio on and found out that we simply can’t listen to anything. 1pm: We’ve been spending more time in Scott’s room today than we could yesterday.
