role reversal

as we were driving home tonight, the kids kept jibber-jabbering for our attention. ella was asking me to say words for her to spell while evan was playing the rhyming game (he says a word and tries to think of one that rhymes...sometimes he is successful and other times he comes up with things like "plane and grass...they rhyme mommy!"). SO, i got weary of the constant talking and told them i was tired. so my little buddy then said "you need to go to bed, mommy? i will tuck you in, ok!?" of course i said "sure, bud! you can tuck mommy in!"

he remembered.

when it was time for him to go to bed he sweetly told me it was time for him to tuck me in bed. and i let him. i crawled into bed (in my jeans), he pulled the covers up over me and gave me goodnight kisses. i then had to give him instructions to go crawl in his own bed and wait for daddy to come tuck him in. so i waited until daddy was done and his door was closed. and then i got up...making sure that he went to bed knowing he tucked me in for the night. i will surely have sweet dreams tonight!
