The kids woke up early; you went to bed late. Everyone is maxxed out from too much everything. It’s ok. Even if it doesn’t feel ok. It’s still ok.

Select one of these phrases and repeat as needed:

They will learn to sleep again.

They will move through this.

I will move through this.

We’re all tired, and it’s ok.

Feeling let down after a holiday is normal.

We’ve readjusted before; we can readjust again.

This too shall pass.

Just keep swimming.

It’ll be bedtime soon.

(that last one was my personal favorite when my kids were little).
