Weird sleeping arrangements

Children are funny!

I have realized that I don't need to take things quite so seriously.

These girls are only young once and I'm trying to see the humor in all that they do- instead of rolling my eyes or just seeing the mess they make for one day, there won't be polly pockets or Barbies all over the place.

The night after their little im-promptu sleepover, I got distracted on putting the air mattress away. I went upstairs to give them kisses and this is what I found. Instead of pulling the air mattress out completely for both of them to sleep on it, poor Em was sleeping on the floor! They were sound asleep too! So, I left them as they were and around 3 a.m., I was awakened by "Sissy, move over!" Emily was trying to push Rebecca over and had climbed up on the air mattress with her. I did put her in bed that time.

A few nights later, Rebecca was late in finishing her school work. So Emily had taken a shower and red herself for bed before Rebecca even finished up her schooling. While Becca went to take a shower, I had Emily lay down in bed to wait for her. Rebecca couldn't find the body wash and was yelling Emily's name at the top of her lungs. Emily wasn't answering so I came upstairs to find out why. She was sound asleep in bed. She WAS tired!

When Rebecca went to lay down, she couldn't because Emily was in her way. In the dark, I started to move her but couldn't figure out what type of sheet or blanket she was covered up in. Turns out, she took the pillow case off a pillow and climbed in. As Jay, Bec and I laughed over her, she never woke up. The next night, I found Becca asleep in the pillow case as well only she didn't remove the pillow first.
I would like to say that they must get their weird sleeping arrangements from their daddy but since I slept in a cardboard box for months as a child, I know they get it honestly from their momma. Or maybe it's just a childhood thing.
