Grandma and The Sleep Routine
» motherhood
The grandma is here. She was busy due to Vesak day last week and was not here. I think she misses the kid and comes specially to visit her again, because she mentioned that she is going to be busy tomorrow will be leaving early next morning.
It was past nine o’clock just now when she arrived. That was Yauyau’s bedtime, a routine I have successfully established some time ago. TV off, lights off, door close, banish the father from the room at nine pm and lie on the mattress with her quietly. She would fell asleep without much fussing, sometime within minutes, sometime longer, but not more then an hour.
Yauyau was almost falling asleep, but the grandma was anxious to see her and pop into the room. That greatly excite the girl and she jumped onto her feet, out of the opened door. The grandma was very happy to see that, and exclaimed, “她还不想睡觉!来,奶奶陪你玩。 ”If that was the father, he would have gotten a scolding from me, but since it was the grandma, it would be an exception. They were keeping each other company in the living room and I walked over to see what they were doing. The grandma actually told me to return to my computer to play computer game while they play. What can be better then that!

Isn’t that wonderful? It gives you an excuse to start blogging or back to your games!
It was very sweet of your MIL to pop despite her busy schedule. My MIL doesn’t pop by to visit mine. It’s not happening now and I do not anticipate any in future too! Anyway, she will get lost when she’s outside her turf. It’s better for us to visit her!
It’s good to establish a routine for her. My girl, has a routine too! We try to stick by it and hope things doesn’t go haywire! Bless me!
