Sleep-Overs
It turns out that the solution to Cael's sleeping troubles is Finn.
Cael, for the last... I don't know, forever, has had trouble sleeping. He would wake up at least twice a night crying hysterically and need comforting, or would make his way to our room and want to sleep with us in our bed. Some nights it would be six or seven times in an evening, and calming him down always took at least ten minutes.

Prime Time
Today was priming day. Tomorrow was to be painting day. Simple enough.
Walls? Meet your masters. (Sure, they may seem like complete goobers, but they're highly trained in the art of painting faux-wood burled tiles for set construction. They can handle a little white goop in straight lines.)
