My kids new bedtime prayer goes a little something like this:
Now I lay me down to sleep (slight giggling starts)....
I pray the Lord my soul to keep (giggling gets slightly louder)....
If I should DIAPER (uncontrollable laughter begins).
And then we attempt to finish the prayer twenty mores times before mommy just gives up, and says it for them.
*Oh, the prayer really goes like this (minus the uncontrollable laughter): Now I lay me down to sleep. I pray the Lord my soul to keep. If I should DIE BEFORE I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take.
It's never a dull moment in my house. Not even at bedtime.

Speaking of bedtime, when it comes to sleep my boys do that twin thing. You know, where they mirror each other. My husband always says that no matter what, at some point they always end up sleeping in the same posistion. At first I thought he was crazy. But then one night there was no denying it. He's right. (But don't tell him I admitted that!)
Both in the same posistion, heads facing towards the foot of the bed. Yes, Devin insists on sleeping with his Spongbob Crocs in the bed with him. And why yes, that IS a huge crack in Devin's solid wood bed he managed to break. And yes, it is being held together with a purple milk crate and a toolbox. =) I'm a mom of many talents. But me, wood glue, and screws don't mix!
