Sleep training

I must admit, I had enormous expectations for Owen, even before he was born. But now that he is 7 weeks old, my expectations starts to grow even more. One of which is sleep training. Through countless books on this topic, JJ & I feel so confused and weary about letting Owen cry out to sleep. At first, 5 minute felt like 5 hrs. And then 10 minutes felt like a whole day. After few attempts using Ferber method, we concluded that Owen is not like other kids that can sooth himself to sleep, hence, we will wait until he is older. But I'm very thankful that I went through this process of sleep training because I got to learn more about Owen. Some good, some, well, let's just say I hope that he will love the Lord as much as cries at night (and sometimes day). :)

I'm so thankful for Owen despite his tasmania cries and his uncontrollable kicks during his fuzzy hours. Thank you Lord!
