Dear Esther,
This letter is to inform you that you have repeatedly violated the UN Convention on Human Rights. It quite clearly states that extreme sleep deprivation* is a form of human torture. You must cease and desist immediately, or face the terrifying consequences of seeing blue, helmeted peacekeepers sing kumbaya on our lawn.
Either that or you risk losing your primary food source.
Sincerely,
Mom and Dad
*This letter was written a few days ago, before Esther began sleeping through the night. Now we feel like singing the Hallelujah Chorus. She had awoken 6-8 times a night for nearly a week.

I suggest holding a special session of the UN security council to discuss sanctions, and possibly threaten to lift most favored nation status for the purposes of trade.
Go Esther go!
(I mean with the new sleeping-through-the-night thing. Not the constant-waking thing.)
I need to send Inga one of these letters. Growth spurts can be very tiring for mama!
