When I went in to check on Dennis last night, to give him the last hug and kiss for the evening, he was apparently extremely tired. When I walked in the door to his bedroom, he asked (grumpily) "why are you disturbing me?". I told him I wanted to give him a goodnight hug and kiss. He said "okay, you can have one more hug and kiss, but then you have to go to bed, Mom." He sounded just like us! We often have to tell him the same thing! I was happy to give him the approved hug and kiss and leave him to fall asleep. He was one tired little guy!
Today he failed to take his nap. He did try to nap, but after an hour or so (and him asking me twice if he could get up yet), I heard much noise from his room. I walked in to find him lying in bed and holding the string that controls his window blinds. He was letting them up and down repeatedly and chattering about light and dark. I let him get up and play with his Legos. He would almost rather do that than leave the house, but when a supper invitation came along, he insisted we go and meet the family at San Marcos. I'm glad we did. He was so wired by the time we headed out that we skipped our planned Walmart trip in favor of getting him home. We had a Family Movie Night, watching A Bug's Life and cuddling together on our couch. I bet he goes to sleep easily tonight, too!
