Three in the Bed

The girls have become afraid of the dark and Honey seems the most bothered by it. Sweetie often requests her nightlight and will sometimes come crawl in with us around dawn. Last night around 4am Honey woke up scared and I tucked her back in with ToothFairy and laid down with her awhile until I thought she'd fallen back asleep. A few minutes later she was calling for me again so I took her to the bathroom and put her back in bed & left the bathroom light on for a few minutes but once I turned it off, she was upset again. I decided to tuck her in with Sweetie, hoping to take care of both of them! I told Sweetie that Honey was scared and wanted to cuddle with her and asked if she would let Honey sleep with her. She said sure and made room for her to crawl in. Once they were both settled, Sweetie said to Honey "ok, if you get scared, I'm right here OK?" and flopped back down asleep.
Tonight at bedtime, EVERYBODY wanted to sleep in Sweetie's bed! At 7:30 Murray asked if they were ready for bible stories but they were "toooooooooo tired" and wanted to go right to bed. We got them all set up and tucked in. Stern warnings were given about talking, giggling, playing etc. I left for my bible study group and when I got home, I asked how the pj party went.


Murray replied that they were all back in their own beds by 8pm. LOL so much for that!!!!!!!

Another cute sleepy anecdote:
I was taking Honey to the bathroom and on the way back to bed, I whispered in her ear "I love you!" (people in comas can hear, I figure sleepy toddlers might too!) She suddenly gave me a big squeeze and in a tiny whispery voice said "You're da best mumma in da whole world!"
Ok, on the count of three: one! two! three! ----> awwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!!!!!
