Happy Belated 40th Birthday, Barbara!
"Circe" wrote in message news:v4mxc.139$tI2.127@fed1read07... By the way, how do you manage your three when your husband is away? Mine is leaving tomorrow for three days for a conference and I am afraid I am going to go stark, staring mad. Any advice? Narcotics? For you or for them... either way you want to do it *grin* Melody |

Like Brigitte, I think I dread bedtime the most. I *so* rely on my husband to read the older two their bedtime story while I put the 2yo down. When I have to do it all myself, it is hell. Narcotics is not a bad idea, actually. Maybe they'd skip the bedtime story if they were sufficiently drugged... -- Be well, Barbara Mom to Sin (Vernon, 2), Misery (Aurora, 4), and the Rising Son (Julian, 6) Aurora (in the bathroom with her dad)--"It looks like an elephant, Daddy." Me (later)--"You should feel flattered." All opinions expressed in this post are well-reasoned and insightful. Needless to say, they are not those of my Internet Service Provider, its other subscribers or lackeys. Anyone who says otherwise is itchin' for a fight. -- with apologies to Michael Feldman |

They just complicated the bedtime process too much. I figure there are many times of the day to read to children, most of which work out better for us than bedtime ;-) Putting the kids down now is just tell them to brush their teeth and get their pjs on, hop in bed, kiss them goodnight (and then I go nurse the baby and she's down).
