I'm not sure how well today is going to go. A little being woke us up at two-stinkin-thirty this morning. The claim was that her bed was lumpy. Later I found out that she had just had a bad dream (about a lumpy bed??) and was afraid to go back to sleep.
After waking us up to the report of a 'lumpy bed', instructions were given to 'go lay down on the couch and watch tv if you have to'. Now, I admit that being woken up before the sun makes it extremely difficult to be a good parent. I don't recommend giving a 5 year old instructions to watch tv at 2:30 in the morning. IF, said child is able to turn on the complicated tv and cable system, then there's no telling what she'll end up watching. Turns out King of the Hill was on - another score for parent of the year. Good thing she doesn't know how to work the telephone, who knows what would have happened if she had landed on the Home Shopping Network!
I'm just glad that today is a school day for this little girl. I think I'll say an extra prayer for her teacher. And plan for a nap when school gets home.
