I'm at a loss as how to get Matthew to fall asleep on his own. He needs to snuggle with one of us in our bed until he falls asleep. I'd like to get him to fall asleep in his own bed without somebody in the room. He used to do that. Then he stayed at the IL's and was snuggled to sleep every night, and I haven't been able to break it since. I understand the concept of snuggling a child to sleep, but I miss time spent with Nick. We used to go to bed the same time as Matthew. It gave us time to talk to each other without kids in the room. Now we never talk. If I snuggle Matthew to sleep, I'm usually sleeping before Nick comes upstairs. If Nick snuggles Matthew to sleep, I usually come upstairs so late that I'm exhausted and just fall into bed, ready for sleep.
Bryan started his college courses today, and I really hope that he learns a lot. The ones we picked out for him have to do with learning how to do things in the real world - filling out job applications, W2s, etc. I know that he's going to need all the help he can get with some of this stuff. When he left this morning, he didn't even have his schedule. I hope that he had a good morning, and that it went better than it was going when he went out the door.
