All tuckered out!

After a day of "butting" heads I tried to put Micah to bed early. Eric had to work late and then go straight to a Young Men's activity so I was extra tired after being on my own all day. Lately Micah has been very good at testing my patience and I just had enough and decided to put him to bed. After he came back out of his room 3 or 4 times, and I was thoroughly frustrated, I finally told him to go read a book or something, but he was not to come out of his room again. Amazingly enough he walked back down stairs and I heard him shut the room to his door. This NEVER happens! And even more amazing, I didn't hear a peep out of him for the next 30-40 minutes! I decided I needed to go find out why he was being so silent. As I walked downstairs I noticed that the light was on in his room. Fully expecting to open the door and find him playing I actually found this. I had to walk out of the room I started laughing so hard and I didn't want to wake him up. And of course I had to take a picture because he looked so cute! :) Enjoy!

Yeah for books! That is finally how we convinced Grayson to stay in his room at night...we told him he could read books as long as he wanted but he HAD to stay in his room. It really cured him of leaving every ten minutes!
The picture is super cute, by the way!!!
