I am sure you can all relate to the words "mama can I sleep with you" I hear it every time I put the kids to bed. And I do wish once in a while I could say yes but I do not want them sleeping with me 7 years down the road.  which is still taking place with Lilli.

The problem I am facing is my kids are almost 4 and they are getting more in touch with their own fears. Aniston tells me there is a hand in her room. Cami says there is an old lady. Each one has a different fear. It is so hard for me to let them cry in the middle of the night. I have paired them up thinking that it might be comforting for them to have another person in the room but not the case. What happens is both children get sleep deprivation?

 2 nights ago the kids started peeing their beds one at a time so they could sleep with us. Cami at 10, Scarlett at 12 then again at 2. They woke everyone up and finally went back to sleep at 4. I stayed up and clipped coupons because I couldn't sleep. Once again thanks kids for keeping me up all night. And now I am doing 8 loads of blankets. I did however save $150.00 on my grocery bill. I guess there is a brite side to everything.
