Its so hard to go to sleep

Spencer struggles to fall asleep many nights.  Tonight he came out the five or six times.  Maybe more I just lost count.

There are the regular reasons for leaving his room, bathroom stop, drink, book, drink, bathroom, and so on.  This one was new.

Spencer: Mom!  Oliver is dead!
Me: Spencer, he's ok.  Oliver is asleep.
Spencer: But Mom I can't hear him breathing.

I did my best not to bust up laughing as I imagined him hovering over his sound asleep brother listening.  I also imagine the sound asleep child waking in panic with his brother's face inches from his face.  


I must go.  The little rascal is up again.
