Cold Feet

I learned a new meaning of the expression “Cold Feet”.? Last night, Thing 2 came into our bedroom around 4:30am.? Unfortunately, this is not all that uncommon.

He often wakes in the middle of the night, wanting a light turned on, or a different blanket, or some toy to sleep with.? He goes back to sleep easily enough.? I, on the other hand, can’t always get back to sleep so quickly.

But I digress.? Last night, when I walked him back to his room, and asked what he wanted, he said “My feet are cold.? I want my slippers”.? He has a pair of Barney slippers which he hasn’t worn and I haven’t seen in months.
