Revelation at the Young Residence

Revelation (rev·e·la·tion): a pleasant often enlightening surprise

Yes a revelation. We are succeeding in making changes during our bedtime routine. No it doesn't happen overnight and yes this probably sounds like a mini accomplishment to some. But we are pleased with our girls staying in bed at night. Since the girls share a room, they have always had a tough time winding down at night. But we got tough and they are coming around. We used to sit in the living room and see them wander out of their room five, six, seven, plus times a night sometimes. And more often than not when I'd wake them up in the morning their room would be a complete disaster with every imaginable toy strewn across the floor.

And with a good night's rest come nice sweet girls who sit at the table and eat dinner. This is not new for Eleanor. She always sits and eats with us. But Carolyn's attention span at the table lasted about 2 bites and 3 minutes. And now....wow, it's amazing. She'll sit and eat. I know not exactly climbing Mount Everest, but we'll take it!
