Kendra has been under the weather today with a cold and a fever. Barry is also on call today so I haven't been able to get out of the house much except to get some milk and that was a little crazy with kids throwing fits in the store...and it wasn't even Kendra.
We came home and got the kids ready for bed and put Kara down at 7:00, her normal bedtime. Tanner and Kendra usually go to bed around 8:00, but tonight Kara noticed for the first time that Tanner and Kendra were still awake while she was in bed. She started bawling and would not settle down. I finally made the other two go to bed too so Kara would stop crying. Kendra wasn't happy (like every night) to sleep. She cried and Kara was all upset that now Kendra was crying so she couldn't sleep. This was a conversation Kara had with Kendra in their bedroom.
Kara: Kendra you’re a good little baby, but I don’t like your crying. I’m allergic to loud crying, but I still love you. I’m allergic to crying can you please stop crying?
Kendra: NO!
Kara: Why, because you want to stay up all night? I hate you when you cry, but I love you. I’m allergic to crying and loud noise because it hurts my ears. It will be OK. But I still love you. I know you don’t feel good. I’m allergic to noise and you hurt my ears but I still love you. You are up all night and you are part of our family. If someone takes you I’ll be sad. I’d be happy to sell you but I still love you. Kendra are you awake…are you awake???
And now they are both finally sleeping!!!

That is so funny! My favorite part is "I'd be happy to sell you, but I still love you."
