Awesome trick to make bedtime easier


The other day I felt like I'd been hit by a truck with tiredness. I'm pregnant with my second baby and after work I felt like I was a couple of breaths away from falling asleep sitting up, and I still had to get through the bedtime routine. So instead I told my 2.5 year old daughtet that i was very tired and i needed her to help put me to bed.And she did!She took me to the loo and to way my hands (the trick being that she immediately went right after me of course); she brushed my teeth then I brushed hers; she chose my nightie and put it over my head, i did the same for her; she tucked me in and stroked my forehead and sang me a lullaby. Then we snuggled together and fell asleep.I wouldn't do it this way every night but it was awesome for this one evening. No struggles the entire way through! via /r/Parenting http://ift.tt/2DnLfQ1
