Parenthood

Tonight the kids were overly tired from the fresh air and playing at the park (pictures to come later). They wanted to go to sleep, but not really, atleast not until the other one fell asleep first. Justin took Miles and I read to Sophia. This is usually how it happens each night. Sophia will push all of Justin's button and frequently loose books.

So Miles was not going to sleep and had worked Justin pretty hard in the attempts to get him to sleep. Sophia was actually reading very well, so when Justin asked to switch, I did not think much of it.

Miles was refusing to take the milk before bedtime, but it was slightly warm. I refreshed it with ice cold milk and he promptly (in 5 minutes) fell asleep.

I returned to Sophia's room where they were still reading.

Sophia: "Wow, that did not take long."
Mom: "he just wanted fresh milk."
Sophia: "all you had to do was get cold milk."
Mom: "yes"
Sophia: "that's it??"
Dad: "Yes, Sophia, that's all mom had to do. Now stop rubbing it in."
