So, I don’t really sleep anymore because my neck hurts so much as it continues to re-tighten after my amazing Cancun massage.
I need to get a new pillow.
Anyway, I’m a light sleeper, to begin with, and add the tossing and turning and I can just forget about sleeping.
So, last night, I’m pretending to sleep and I hear footsteps.
I immediately reason that it’s Baby Monkey, because he’s our resident sleepwalker.
I hear him go down the stairs, and then back up again.
Then, I hear him go into Julia’s room, I see the light turn on, then off, then the footsteps leave her room.
The next thing I know, Baby Monkey opens my door, walks into my room, closes the door behind him, looks around, turns around, opens the door again and walks back out.
I hop out of bed and follow him.
“Baby?” I ask.
“Yeah, Mom?” he replies.
“Do you need to go to the bathroom?”
“Yes. But I can’t find it!”
So, I escort him to the bathroom, he goes, walks back to his room, climbs in bed and is instantly asleep.
Such is a typical night in my house.
I remember having incidents of looking for the bathroom in the wrong place as a child! I don’t know why they don’t leave in the same place! Amy, I, too, am a very light sleeper. So far, at least, I can eventually fall asleep after the half dozen tripstothebathroom before I fall asleep! We have been blessed in Texas lately with cool evenings and mornings. It’s great to get the dogs walked before the sun rises and it is cool. Reminds me of Ohio weather!
