Around midnight, just as I was getting ready to stow the folded and unfolded laundry alike into the laundry room for Future!Kim to deal with, and go to bed....
Mark crept downstairs, looking groggy and confused.
I led him back to bed, tucked him in with kisses and his giant blue stuffed monkey, and went back to finish locking up.
Ten minutes later, Mark returns, in full-fledged freakout.
I led him back to bed, and this time climbed in with him, to calm him down. The noise levels woke up my nauseated husband, who wandered downstairs, groggily assuming Mark had come down and found the house dark and empty. Instead Tom found a mostly lit house, and spent a good ten minutes dry-heaving into the sink. :( He eventually wandered back upstairs, found us in Mark's room, and we talked a bit as Mark started relaxing.
Tom went back to bed. I stayed put bc Mark wasn't falling back asleep nor calm enough to leave.
Around 1:30 am I gave up trying to get him to sleep and went to bed myself. Argh.
I don't know when he DID fall asleep, but Tom found him snoring on the couch with Monkey around quarter to six, and he was audibly awake through our upstairs bedroom door by 6:30.
Depending on the efficacy of my morning Dr. Pepper, I may have to get school party treats at the grocery store, and bring along the Mark-safe chocolate chip cookies I already have on hand for tomorrow's event.
