The Wall

It happened.... Keenan finally hit the wall.
Let me explain.
Thursday my Dad, the boys, and myself headed up to Ohio for a quick trip.
Keenan had not been off to a good start (up since 5:30, plant tipped over, dirt spilled, one trip to time out, bickering with Kieran). It was enough where Kevin left for work, patted me on the shoulder & said "Good luck".
But it turned around.
In fact, it was one of the most pleasant drives up to Ohio. No bickering, fighting, arguing. And no napping by either boy.
Naturally they both got to bed a tad late Thursday night. Then Friday began.
For Keenan it began at 5:30 again.
And he was full on all day.
Lunch at Schmidts, hanging out with Rebecca and Ted, then dinner rolled around and the big Good Friday get together at my Aunt's house. Nothing like forty some people to hang out and catch up with. The boys had a big time playing with their cousins (technically second cousins I guess), and then IT happened.
It was a little before 10:00 and I saw Keenan go sit down. I went to tell him it was almost bedtime. Instead he told me "I wanna go to bed." and took off up the stairs, pulled on some pj's, and that was it.
He got up this morning briefly when my Dad left to take Rebecca and Ted to the airport, then crashed on the floor in his room.
That is where I found him at 7am.
And that is where I woke him up.
Glad to know even he can hit the Wall.
