"Wait, mommy, I just need to tell you one thing. Um, um, um, the sun is hot. Wait mommy, I just need to tell you one more thing. . ." "I need waaater." "I can't sleep with my eyes shut." And my favorite, "But I have cramps."Emhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03941079549267331427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10294772.post-79703638937634276422008-08-31T06:41:00.000+10:002008-08-31T06:41:00.000+10:00Just a phase!

DH is much more of a softie and often gets taken in my the "one more story" request.

Or, well, just about everything, really. Still, at least you have the pleasure of knowing that when they become teenagers they'll appreciate your struggles and treat you with the reverence and veneration you deserve. <BR/><BR/>Something to look forward to then…Trevorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13683057947366209525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10294772.post-61550526993000674002008-08-27T22:43:00.000+10:002008-08-27T22:43:00.000+10:00I wish they wouldn't fight sleep so much.

I asked my sitter how long it will be before the battles of bedtime are over, and she said "around seven or eight years old."
