Sleeping through the Night

Dare I say it? Will I only be jinxing a good situation at the homestead?
Little Colin is almost seven months old and he has more energy than he knows what to do with on about any day. He cannot crawl yet but I feel in him the need to run!
He is our last baby, we are done with the childbearing. We know this as each stage passes. Sometimes that knowledge is bittersweet, as any Mom could attest. Colin has yet to be consistent in sleeping through the night. This stage I will be GLAD to have behind us!!
You cannot compare your children for they truly are unique little beings but does he not know that both of his brothers were in a stable night sleeping routine months before this when they were babes! There has to be a better way to stretch out your individuality my sweet little boy.
Colin has slept through til morning for the past four nights!! I tell him how proud I am of him each morning, even though I awake a couple of hours earlier full with milk and ready to feed! And proud I am, proud like the first day of school, or the first sleepover, the letting go begins when our wee ones are still so small. I need to let Colin know that I believe in him.... he can spend the whole night alone in his bed, after all his brother is close by:) I wonder if in some way I have been holding on and that message has had Colin waking to take care of my need? Sometimes you will find your children taking care of you, with three boys, I have seen it so often. Thanks Colin, for letting me have a baby for just a little longer!!
But now I have said it!!!! What will tonight bring.
