Jingle Bells
April 16th, 2008
Every night as I tuck the toot in, I ask him what song he wants me to sing to him. And every night, the answer is the same: “Jingle Bells.”
Ever since last Christmas, this kid LOVES Jingle Bells. If he randomly asks for something else, I know he’s not serious about going to sleep.
While I sing to him, I stroke his hair — he closes his eyes and snuggles in to go to sleep. It’s adorable.
It got up to 80 degrees this week… and I’m still singing Jingle Bells daily. I really don’t mind. I’m wondering how long this trend will last. It’s an adorable three-year-old-ism that I will miss when he grows out of it.

I think it is good you appreciate it. I still sing Hadley to sleep, but Ella must be more discerning and know I have a terrible voice. When I start to sing to her, she yells STOP IT.

That IS cute. All part of toddler OCD!
