Oh, What A Night

So Lucy has started the habit of not wanting to stay in bed at bedtime. She gets up at least twice and says that she can't sleep. I'll put her right back to bed and she will get up minutes later and say that she just can't fall asleep. :) I tell her to try a little harder, but usually it takes a song (sung just right) for her to fall back asleep. If you start singing a song she will either tell you "No, not that one" or "Quietly." She is very particular about how you sing her lullaby.

Also, she hasn't mentioned this for a little while, but for about a week she was focused on ghosts. I'm not talking the cute little sheet covered trick-or-treat ghosts. I am talking full-on creepy people ghosts. I have no idea where she learned about them, or why she was so fixated on them but it even started creeping me out a little bit. She would scream in her bed and say that she was "cared of ghosts." She said there was a little girl and a big man in her room and that they followed her to my room and were out in the hallway. I am a wuss anyway, so this I had a hard time handling. Eventually, I would have to stand up and shout "GHOSTS! GET OUT OF HERE, GHOSTS!" This would solve the problem for a little while, but the next night it would happen all over again! I'm incredibly happy that is over with for now at least. Ghosts are not welcome in the Ellis House! So this story wasn't really anything cute she has said, but it is a weird thing for a 2 year old to talk about.

TA-DA! POST COMPLETE!
