Bedtime

I can't remember the last time Sophie gave us trouble by throwing a tantrum, but our biggest challenge with her remains bedtime. Our routine can drag out for up to two hours, with requests for one more story, more drinks, patting her back until she falls asleep, what-are-you-doing-daddy?, monsters in the closet, and potty needs. It's tiresome, especially on weeknights where I have to wake up at 4:45am the next morning, but I keep reminding myself that she's just acting like the 3 year old that she is!
