Last night, Madeline refused to go to bed unless the overhead light in her bedroom was left on. Same thing for her nap this afternoon. She told us that the dark was scary. "Scary" only entered her frame of reference a few days ago and I can't figure out why!
Today I realized that Madeline's come really far in the Mother Goose program. When we started it, she had no idea what was expected of her, and I doubt she really cared. It was more fun to run around the room with the other toddlers and preschoolers. But lately, she's been singing and clapping along, and waiting patiently for Sleeping Bunny time, which is her favourite.
Unrelated but cool: I read about the new international symbol for breastfeeding on Blogging Baby today. It's think it's perfect!
I put up glow-in-the-dark stars on her ceiling for a little glow and she has a Dora alarm clock that has a nice little glow. I found the night lights too bright. Sometimes you are so happy what kids pick up and other times, I wish I could filter it :)
