I mean really once you decide something as monumental as this, there really is no going back. What, you ask, did we decide to do? We decided that Christopher was ready to sleep in his own "Big Boy Bed"!!! It has been in the works for a little while now and after a small fiasco with toddler bed rails, last night was the big debut of said bed. Well needless to say Christopher FREAKED and cried the whole time we tucked him, but he quickly (really quickly, actually) learned that he can stand on his bed and get the turtle night light. So with literally seconds of closing the door we here this little tiny clicking noises. After a quick readjustment he was tucked in once more and that was that... or so I thought. Did he fall out of bed you ask? Or wake up and start playing with his toys? Or have nightmares? NOOOOOoooooooo. He slept like a baby! But I on the other hand was anticipating anything and everything ALL night, tossing and turning ready to spring the moment I heard him make a noise.
But in all actuality, he did amazing! I couldn't have asked for a better, cooler, funnier kid! He is getting old too fast as all children do. So today I am going to squeeze him a little tighter, and kiss him a few more times, and tickle him a little longer! Because who knows what he will be doing tomorrow or the next.
I feel extremely lucky, extremely blessed and a little bittersweet too. (Wentworth Miller)
