It is 9:00pm on a Monday night which means that if the kids fell asleep right this minute, they'd get 10 hours of sleep which isn't enough for kids who don't nap. Our kids are definitely not asleep. In fact, they are running around like chickens with their heads cut off. We send them to bed at 7:45 every night. That's early enough, right? Well apparently if we want them to get enough sleep each night, we need to put them to bed at 5:00pm because it takes them 3 hours to get to sleep!
Okay, so I'm laying in bed watching TV (because I would love nothing more than on this night to fall asleep early) and I see Jamie fly by. Once. Twice. Three times. Finally I stop him as he's climbing on Alice's toy train in the hall.
Mama: "Jamie! It is time to go to sleep. You need to go right back into your room!"
Jamie: "Nope. I'm going right here. Peace out, girlscout." And he rides away into the sunset....errr.....living room.
