"You want to sleep. Your baby has been up all night saying 'Mommy, mommy, mommy’ every three hours. But when it hits 5:45 and your baby is like, 'It's time to play, it’s time to hang out, it’s time to wrestle on the floor,' there is no amount of tired where you say no. Even if you wanted to, you can’t."
