8:00 PM. This has become my favorite part of the day. All three boys are re-tucked in, scriptures painfully read, and family prayer endured by 7:30. We don't expect to see them again until 6:45 AM, unless of course... something's creepy outside... I accidentally wet through... I just gotta tell ya one more thing...
And heaven forbid Ethan falls asleep for even 15 minutes during the afternoon because it then becomes our nightmare trying to get him to settle down for the night. On the regular napless days we run him ragged and after the five minutes of "just one more thing," he is often asleep within three to five minutes. This was not one of those nights. After much noise and talking we thought they had finally settled down.
We peeked in and found this...
Well, at least one was out.
The irony of the situations is this. When we stay in town with friends they don't always have beds for the entire family. The boys fuss and cry about how uncomfortable it is to sleep on the floor and they only want to be home in their own beds. Now I have purchased an airbed for those very occasions. So what do they do at home but leave their comfortable beds for the floor.
