Past Bedtime

Last night we got home late, too late.  Aubrey was tried and cranky, even the smallest inconveniences threw her into a tantrum. 

We got jammies on.  She cried because she didn't want to change.

We brushed teeth.  She cried because she couldn't find her blankie.

We quickly read scriptures.  She cried because she didn't want to hear us talking.

While we had our family prayer she was still crying.  We said the final "Amen" and I opened my eyes, with tears still flooding down her red cheeks and sobs choking her voice she said, "Mom!  Now I can't remember why I'm crying!"

Definitely time for bed.

Isn't it hilarious how such little things can throw our lives upside down!! My girls do that all the time, and I love it when they say, "I'm NOT tired mom!!"
