Tonight as I was turning off the lights, Tori says, "Oh I forgot to tell you earlier, my tummy hurts." Last night she told me her tummy hurt as I was turning off the light and I called her bluff and told her if it was hurting then it would have been hurting during the whole bedtime process so she needs to tell me earlier. So after I tell her no again tonight, she whines a little, and 20 minutes later, "Mommy! Daddy!" "My nightlight is keeping me awake." Explaining what a Catch-22 is to a 4.5 year old is not an easy task, especially at 9PM. I tell her to close her eyes so she doesn't see the light and close the door. Immediately, "Daddy!!"
"Yes Tori?"
"My head hurts."
"Good night Tori."
Drama followed. I'm such a mean daddy.
