Won the battle, not the war

It is almost 3 AM so why the heck am I on the computer?? Well my lovely daughter decided to wake me up twice since 1 AM. No she isn't sick and there are no monsters in her room, I checked :). I guess she just thinks it is a good night to stay awake. Right now she is on the couch watching TV cause when I attempted, many times I might add, she had a screaming fit. I know I am the mother and should have won this battle but she was waking everyone in the house. Marcus has had such a rough day that he needs to sleep. So she won the battle-this time.
About Marcus, he had another really bad day. At one point he was in so much pain he was rolling around whining. You have to know him to understand that he just doesn't act like that unless it is unbearable. I think I will take him for a massage tomorrow and see if that provides any relief.
