Fingers crossed...

that Rosa will stay in bed and asleep.

I took her to the Botanical Garden music festival tonight. The Air National Guard Band was playing. As I had pretty much expected, she did not want to sit still and listen to music. I chased her around the area for a while, then we just wandered around the garden: played in the fountain, fed the koi and the baby ducks (nine of them in what appeared to be one family), and left just after intermission. I could see that she was tired, so instead of coming straight home I drove down the highway for half an hour and she fell asleep as I had hoped. I put her into her bed (for the first time in ages!) and she just laid her head down and went back to sleep. This is the earliest I've had her in bed in at least a month, maybe two.

I'm hoping to break her (again ::sigh::) of the late night habit. Last night she was up past eleven pm, and cried for her daddy for almost an hour. (How to break Mommy's heart in one easy lesson.) I called him and let her talk to him on the phone, but that still didn't really help much. She was crying for him again tonight, earlier, but not as long.

(no subject)

Rosa woke up at 10:25 and cried for about five minutes. Again with the "I want my daddy"...but she just abruptly stopped crying again. I suspect I'll find her in my bed when I go up to sleep. I'm going to put her back in hers again, though, if she is.

Typo of the moment
