Inexplicably...

...the little girls have asked to sleep on the floor of their room for the past two nights. The unexpected request burst forth as if it were the greatest and most natural longing of any little girls' hearts. I couldn't think of a reason to say no, so we tossed a couple of blankets and pillows down from their bunks and so it was. The first night I fully expected for them each to abandon their adventurous floor-sleeping for the traditional comfort of bed-sleeping sometime before morning. But no, there they still were when I made the morning wake-up rounds--Lydia curled in a ball perpendicular to her pillow and Afton hugging a pink, fuzzy robe. How long will this carpet camping continue?

Funny little girls. This post makes me smile. :) :) It's the doing something that is not ordinary that makes it so extraordinary.

Maybe it stems from going to sleep on their cousins floor so many times? (:
