Everyday we go through the same routines to “clean up”.

Everyday he makes me laugh.

I soap a facecloth, hand it to him, take his eye glasses to wash. It’s become a game of sorts. He has a new funny now for the last few days – I’ll watch him and he knows it. The facecloth may be used to “dab” the soap on his nose (only) or applied as if using blush on his cheeks. I peer “sternly” over my glasses and he’s watching and waiting for me. We burst out laughing.

You have heard “the buck stops here” -
Well, the laughs stop here when it’s bath time. Told him he would now put stickers on the calendar every time he bathed. It’s a battle to get him in the tub and he swears that he just had a bath.

Today will be bath battle Monday and I know who will win – but at what cost:)

So my man dreams a lot – I hope he has some nice, sweet dreams along with the other ones.

About 7am this morn, I rolled out of bed to his words, “Do you think the bed’s bracket is broken?”

(Sure will be if I don’t soon get to the bathroom with this full bladder:)

“It’s OK, Hon, just going to the bathroom.”

“Oh, ok.” Off to sleep instantly again. Wonder if the bracket were broken ~~~
