Any parent who likes bedtime is a liar or still pregnant.

This story resonated with me deeply but also helped me reflect on how much my personal bedtime torture has progressed. This time last year my husband sent me out of the house one night during bedtime so a) we could prove to my younger son he could in fact get to bed without me and b) I could get a break from wanting to kill him/myself every night when the bedtime process passed the two hour mark. Earlier this week I went out at 7 pm and this very same son told my husband, “I don’t care who puts me to bed!” It’s obnoxious to hear it gets better when you’re in thick of combat but man, it feels GREAT when you realize it actually has.
