I know he’s only four,
and I know he’s overly tired.
But when he reacts this way and chooses to disobey,
it makes my heart hurt.
I can’t let him fall asleep mad at us.
I tell him stories about how I used to put kittens in my dollhouse,
and he eventually begins to grin.
We make peace, and I can now sleep.











I LOVE that picture! That is a great way to get him to not be mad at you!
So cute, Erin. Jaxon is blessed to have a mom like you.. instilling these things in him when he is so young
