Canada lost in overtime. &nbsp;It took they a bit to settle down and get to bed.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><br \/><\/span> <\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">I have this fear that I am not loving my boys enough. &nbsp;It is a weird feeling I get. &nbsp;For example, Josh is in our bed more then he isn&#8217;t. &nbsp;I will move him to his bed and by midnight he is back. &nbsp;Yet the same goes for Zach. &nbsp;A lot of the time, I just allow them to fall asleep in our bed and then move them both. &nbsp;It is just easier to get them to sleep quicker.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><br \/><\/span> <\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">But I know that Zach feels Josh&#8217;s overpowering personality invading his space. &nbsp;He needs to feel the love of being the younger one too. &nbsp;His brothers aren&#8217;t as tolerant of him. &nbsp; In all fairness, he is annoying to them&#8230; it is how he gets attention.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><br \/><\/span> <\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">So last night, Zach woke up and watched the last 5 minutes of hockey. &nbsp;Then he asked if he could sleep in our bed. &nbsp;I moved Josh into the other room so that Zach could sleep with us and Sanj wouldn&#8217;t complain&nbsp;about not having room.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><br \/><\/span> <\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Of course then Josh wakes up crying at 2 a.m. and is in our room again.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><br \/><\/span> <\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\">2 big bodies and 2 little bodies&#8230;
