Over the Christmas break, we had Layla sleepover with Caidence. We put them to bed watching "The Little Mermaid" and hoped they would fall asleep watching it. I went to bed and just as I was drifting off to sleep one or the other would come tap me. "I have to go to the bathroom. I need a drink. I want cheese." I finally went out and turned off the tv once the movie was over and turned off all the lights and told them "goodnight." Again. 12:30 I wake up to hear clinking in the other room. I go out and see Layla playing with blocks in the dark. I tell her it's time to put the blocks away and go to sleep. Well, in Layla fashion, she tells me in her sassiest voice "Just a minute, Michelle." I took the blocks from her and told her goodnight, and she stood in the corner pouting and mad at me. But I didn't hear from her again. Then at 4 am, Caid comes in crying. But it's the crying where she is still asleep so she can't tell you what's wrong, and I'm tired and don't want to fight her. I don't see sleepovers any time soon in the future.
