I absolutely love being a mom.  Yes, before you ask, this blog post is a complete procrastination ploy.  Minnow is such an amazing child.  I know, like all mom’s don’t say that.  But it is true.  He is awesome.  He asks to go to bed–for every nap (if we are home) and every night.  When he is ready,  he looks at Hubby and I and says “upstairs.”  Okay.  Who am I to argue.  We were upstairs playing this morning and about 15 minutes ago he stood at his crib and said “please up momma.”  So, I put him in bed and he is currently reading–I can hear him–but is going to take his nap.  This is an early nap for him, but he was up before 7. 

I just love the fact that he is able to determine when it is time to go to bed.  I think it has made it a lot easier on us as parents to allow him to get to decide.  We don’t have a lot of bedtime struggles. Sometimes he is ready at 8 and other times not until 9.  I am pretty sure he understands that he can make the decision, so he makes it and does well with it. 

I am sure this is not normal for a 2 year-old.  And I am pretty confident that we are in for a rude awakening with our next child.  We’ll see.  Maybe we will be lucky and be blessed with two easy children.  I almost said perferct children–but all children are perfect. 

So, what amazing things do your children do?
