That he cannot turn off his brain to go to sleep. Why are some nights like this and others not? I often wonder this. Today was like any other day. He played outside...he played with A and then right at bedtime he realizes that he has all of this 'hotspots' and is itching and can't stop and therefore cannot relax and can't go to sleep. His brain just won't turn off. It's just crazy. You can tell by looking at him that it's going a mile a minute and just did not wind down like it does some other nights and you know it's not his fault and you know you can't get upset with him or frustrated. Part of me thinks that if I would lay down and stay with him he might relax but I am just not ready to go to sleep at 8:30. So...out he comes...to hang out with us until I go to bed at 10 and hopefully he'll wind down. Good thing he doesn't have school tomorrow!!
