Hee-hee! My son had the same problem last night. He tossed and turned and finally fell asleep about 11:45 p.m.! He is gonna be a bear this morning when I wake him at 7:45 that's for sure!! But, then again, I didn't sleep well either. Hate having that many days off of school/work! Uggghhh!
Hugs and love, Lisa
Hang in there!!!! judi
Welcome to my world hahahah. My 7 year old does that same crap, but every night, not because he doesnt want to go to school, but because he doesnt want to go to sleep, because he is afraid of missing something hahaha. Your sould like me with the WHAT!!!! thing. but my 7 year is gettin good about 20 or 30 minutes before bed he will act liike he is sick, and say well if I dont lay down I will be ok LOL. Don't these kids know we were young once and know everything they do before they do it? LOL OMG I remember when my mom used to say that to me!!! Your J-Land Pal Heather
Oh my goodness, ha,ha! The joys of being a mother. >:) There will be a day my boy does that to me. Toenails and hating school. I can actually remember back when I was in kindegarten(sp?), begging my mom to keep me home from school.
