Reason #645 I am a dodgy mum.
My three year old has the annoying habit of sneaking out of bed, in the afternoons when he should be napping and in eenings when he should be sleeping. I had joked with Dave that we should put a bell on him so that we could hear him making trouble.
Anyway, I was at the Reject shop last week with the kiddos, and we found these cute little ‘guardian angel’ bracelets. Basically lengths of satin cord with coloured bells and trinkets on them. The little tag on the bracelets said something about ‘your guardian angel will be sure to look for you whenever it hears these bells ringing.’ Miss-almost-5 was obviously smitten by them, and Mr Three was not going to be left out. For $2 each, it seemed like a good deal. Miss-Almost-5 obviously lost hers as soon as we got home, but Mr Three is stll wearing his.
He still hasn’t figured out how I know when he has gotten out of bed, and is sneaking ever so quietly down the hallway ;)
