It is always nice when your kids surprise you, in a good way.

The kids read a lot of books that deal with characters who have adventures independent of their parents, so on Tuesday when Aiden asked if he could sleep outside in the climber, I agreed. To be perfectly honest, I didn't think the kids could do it. My dear boy struggles with sleeping in his own bed and we find him in the living room or our room each night so I figured it was a safe bet. Well, I was perfectly surprised when by 9pm Aiden and Caileigh were sound asleep, outside, in the climber! We ended up moving them into the motorhome around midnight and Sean slept out there with them.

I guess it is just a good reminder to not underestimate our kids. They can do so much once they set their mind to it!

As a side note: the reason I didn't sleep outside with them.......I was too scared!
