Bedtime stories
Madolyn is really into books and being read to right now. Every night we have to read her atleast three or four books before she'll let us stop so she can go to bed. She has quite a little bedtime routine going on now. She runs and puts on her jammies and then asks for a "purple" which is her purple grape vitamin/fluoride tablet. She asks for some "wazza" (water) and then runs to the bathroom to brush her teeth. She grabs her stool and puts it up to the sink, grabs her toothbrush and asks for toothpaste so she can brush her "eeth". We let her brush until the count of 10 and then we finish for her. She then runs to her bed saying "pray" and falls/dives to her knees and buries her head on the mattress so you can pray with her. She then jumps up after saying "amen" and says "book?" After about three or four books, we tell her that's enough and says "mores" which means she wants to be sang to. She only has a few songs she lets us sing to her; Away in a manger, I am a child of God, I love to see the temple, and When I am baptized. If you try any others she'll say, "No no no. Shhhh." as she puts her finger up to your lips. After singing each one of these songs a few times, she'll sometimes let you go. If not, she'll just keep saying "mores" until she has been sung to enough. Lately, Daddy's singing isn't enough for her, so after a few songs she'll a blow me a kiss, which means she has had enough and wants you to leave, and then she asks me for Mommy. On that note, she also only lets Mommy sing "apples and nanas" and the "abc's". I have to agree that Dawn does sing better than me...
