Fits of Fury

So, the boy was super tired at supper time tonight. He hadn't had a nap today because we were all to busy playing in water outside. I figured we better take advantage of this fabulously summery afternoon just in case it is the last. 

The cool new hang out on top of the shed

However with out his nap, he had become a monster and wouldn't eat his supper. So when he and I had finally had enough, I washed him up, all the while he screamed "NOOOOO" at me. Once I had him all washed up, I put him in his pajama's while he continued to scream "NNNNNOOOOOOOO". I put him in his bed and he hit me and told me to "GO AWAY". So I kissed him and told him I loved him, he insisted I "GO AWAY". I asked if we should sing lullabies, He said "NO SUNBEAMS, GO AWAY". So I kissed him once more and told him good night and went to the door. He threw himself down on his bed and cried "Sunbeams please" in a less screaming voice. He hugged his blanket and cried while I sang him "Jesus Wants Me for a Sunbeam". He cried a little bit less. I said "Night Night sleep tight" and through his tears he said "night night, love you too", to which I answered "I love you too" and shut the door. He cried for a little while longer, but has already stopped crying in just the time it has taken me to type this post and I am sure he is already asleep. Even in his fury, he demanded his bed time routine. I love that boy.
