Now many people have different ideas as to why parents seem to think kids need night lights in their bedrooms.  I’m here to tell you that it has NOTHING to do with being afraid of the dark.  Today I played outside for lots and lots of time (Mommy told Ammie it was for three hours).  Anyway, I had burritos for dinner (Daddy even rolled up my own shell with beans and meat and cheese inside), and then I got to play for a bit before I got cranky enough that my parents made me get ready for bed.

So I fuss while I get my jammies on, cuz that’s my job.  And I got in bed and I took my bottle and I went to sleep like a good girl.  I even was enjoying my time there, but like usual I moved around a lot and tried to find a more comfortable spot.  Only tonight my nightlight wasn’t working, and so I didn’t see where the edges of the bed were when I got close.  My Mommy and Daddy were smart and put rails on the sides of my bed, but they weren’t as smart as they thought, cuz they didn’t put anything on the END of the bed.  Well, without the light I didn’t notice when I got to the edge, and when I threw myself over one more time, I woke up suddenly and found myself staring up at the bottom of my bed!!

That’s the last time I trust my parents to make sure that all my gadgets are working at bedtime.  That night light is a MUST to keep me in my bed!  Man, parents aren’t good for anything!
