Without fail you will be having mummy playing musical beds every night as you wake up anywhere between one to four times to be nursed or cuddle beside me. Many of your 21month old friends have been sleeping through since they were less then 1 yrs old or the most wake up once during the night. When will you grow out of comfort nursing or ease your night time attachment anxiety? Every morning you wake up cranky if I am not within your sight radar.
Mummy really hopes that you will be able to sleep independently. Can you do so when you turn two in Dec ?
I really yearn for an uninterrupted night of sleep as I haven’t had one for the past 4 yrs.
The little girl is reading the storybook with her daddy.
I read storybook with mummy and Roy.
I though him to use the words.
In the Morning, Later , After and at night before bed
to join the sentences that he had earlier mentioned and we wrote down together.
The completed essay reads:
In the morning,Mummy wash and hang up the clothes
Later ,mummy cook dinner for me.Macaroni and cheese. My favourite.
At night before bed we sit together and read storybook .
The essay is not gramatically correct as he should have been using the past tense instead of the present tense. However since the emphasis is on building up the storyline it is quite an achievement for him I will teach him on when to use the correct tenses another time.
