My Sophia keeps waking up scared! - Real-Life Super Mama Wisdom:
I left the following comment on
Sophia used to be a pretty good sleeper.
But I think since the move...and operation
"get sienna to sleep through the night"...
she got all out of whack.
Lately she's been having the hardest time going to bed..and STAYING IN BED. :)
I wouldn't mind if she just crawled into our bed like she occassionaly does..but she usually cries out for us(sad)..and wakes up sienna...(they share a room)
and that starts the never ending cycle of getting them both back to bed!
Some nights are better then others.. Last night....was NOT one of those nights.
We've been trying a lot of different things: praying, night lights, story time, the noisemaker/projected picture on the wall gadget we have.....
Sophie goes to bed with the picture
of her with her guardian angel...
(our pastor gave it to her last christmas because it looked like her! so sweet.)
Ben told her one night that her guardian angel will be there with her to keep her safe so she doesn't need to be scared.... Well that worked one night...
She woke up and the first thing she told me in the morning was that her guardian angel
didn't come! she didnt' see her! haha..it was so cute..
we told her she just went back to heaven as soon as she woke up. :)
We are gonna keep trying...and use some of your GENIUS ideas!
and I realized that many of you are in the same boat as me....
Trying to figure out the best way to deal
with a toddler being scared at night!
