Battles

As parents all of us have certain battles.  Each of our kids are unique and finding what works with one verses another is a constant challenge.  My kids all have certain things they/we battle with.  Savannah is emotional sometimes I feel like she has duel personalities.  Sometimes I think Kaitlen could live off of 2 bites of food a day, food just isn't important to her and we really struggle every meal.  Samuel is way to hard on himself and expects perfection 99% of the time.  Kelsie, is still to young to tell but she is very strong willed, can't say as i blame her youngest of 5 has to be tough.  Isabelle's is bed time, she is like her dad and can stay up until the late hours of the night.  I thought it would be fun to chronicle the different places she falls to sleep each night of the week.  Each night we brush teeth, sing a song, or read a story and the girls are tucked into bed, however this little lady always sneaks out and finds the most random places to fall asleep.  I suppose she thinks I won't find out that she is out of her bed if she hides. 

SUNDAY: In her closet.

 MONDAY: Wrapped up in her canopy.

TUESDAY: My bedroom floor hiding under her pillow

 WEDNESDAY: Success! Asleep in her bed!

 THURSDAY: Under my bed.

FRIDAY: On my floor, she was on her way to take the fan into her room because she was hot, I guess she just couldn't make it though.

One thing I've learned as a parent for almost 10 years is to not sweat the small things,  we just carry her to bed and tuck her in.  She really is the cutest, its hard to get upset with this sweet little girl.
