Up until this point we have had a special bedtime routine. Not that I no longer adore rocking Kinsley and going through our traditions, I'm just amused at how things have gone this week. For example during prayer: when I begin with "dear god,...." she immediately pipes in with repeated AMENS. I try talking over her insistent plea for closure by continuing on but voices just get louder and louder until I realize we are having a prayer battle. Our bedtime song has also changed and doesn't enlist a typical warm fuzzy feeling. When I now try to sing the usual "Moon" song Kinsley vehemently shakes her head and repeats no, no, no. The only song she will agree to? "Bad Day" by Daniel Powter. I can't help but laugh at the fact that I am "soothing" my baby with negativity. I only hope she isn't as impressionable at this age as all the books say :).
