I have attempted in attempted in every way to coax Ben into going to sleep in his own bed tonight and to take Viper for a walk, but Viper is being held captive in Ben’s room, and I have now given up. Three is a tough age, and not because they have trouble with it either……three year olds are stubborn. I am SURE Viper wanted to walk. And although Ben was okay with it, his demand was that he go along….but not at 10 o’clock at night,
So the dog is in bed, along with a toddler who is technically there, yet technically not. Of course Viper never minds sleeping anywhere…..he does so about 23 hours every day. But I really wanted to walk, and although I suppose I could alone, somehow it would feel like betrayal. Of course I probably would need to wake him up to share I had betrayed him, but it’s really all about my conscious and not his.
But the truth is I am in bed, with no dog, no walk, no exercise, and I am not happy about it. Yep, Ben wins…he has out maneuvered me again. I am not sitting at the feet of the master, I am raising him. I will get some rest and hope to keep up with him tomorrow!
Goodnight my friends and God Bless.
