well my threat to withold a star if they came out of bed has worked...

It required a few days of warning...

but since 8:30 i have not seen either of them..

To be honest...I am amazed myself...

Just shows how much power we have when we coach our kids the right way. I bet my son is proud as well.


Keep it at..and good luck.

just checked on the kids (i live in europe hence time difference)...and well they are asleep...BUT my daughter of 5 has moved into my son's bed. Adorable to see. They did not get out of bed to see me...but just decided it would be nicer to sleep together...

we'll see if that continues...because sleeping together often means more talking and luaghing. But for now am happy with the result.

good night,

Lina
