Bed Time Ritual

I tuck her in and give her a hug and a kiss. I exit her bedroom. Then I am supposed to come back to her and repeat it once or twice. Better still, I have to say something to the effect, “Oh, I forgot to give my baby a good night hug…” Sienna is the director of the whole scene for her bed time ritual.

9pm is the time she goes down exactly with the long hand hitting the digit 12. She will talk to herself for a while in bed but not allowed to come out except going pee. Till around 8am the next morning, that’s all the hours she gets for sleep. She is completely done with her nap now. I wish she would sleep more although she does seem to have enough.
