First, she has to make sure her 2 purple pillows are placed just right...near her headboard, and closer to the wall. Then, she puts her big stuffed dog on her right side, and her stuffed kitty on her left. She has to hold her small stuffed dog and her little bear. Next up, her blankets. Right now, she's only been using her tiny yellow one and her Noah's Ark crib blanket. Sometimes, though, she'll use about 8-10 different ones. No joke. And they all have to be laid facing the correct way. Once she's in and covered, she makes sure her night-light and ceiling fan (even when it's freezing) are on, and then our conversation goes like this...
Rylee: "Love you."
Me: "Love you."
Rylee: "Sweet Dreams."
Me: "Sweet Dreams."
Rylee: "See you in the morning."
Me: "See you in the morning."
Rylee: "Are you guys gonna lock your door?" (She is referring to mine and Ryan's bedroom door. This question started during her brief phase when she tried to sleep in our bed, and we started telling her that we would lock our door so she couldn't sneak in.)
Me: "Yes." (We don't actually lock our door, but she doesn't know that. Shhhh!)
Rylee: "When are you guys going to bed?"
Me: "In a little bit."
We repeat our little banter twice. Don't ask me why.
Kids are sometimes a bit odd in my world.
