Anyone who practices attachment parenting, especially co-sleeping, will appreciate this.
It’s funny because it’s entirely true.
But despite how uncomfortable it can be at times, when more often than not, the smallest person in the bed has the most room, I wouldn’t change it for the world. I miss my children’s warm, snuggly little bodies when they are not there.
I reckon whoever invented that song “there were ten in the bed and the little one said” was a co-sleeper (and a staunch believer in the family bed at that).
Lately, my Granny has taken it upon herself to teach Ruby little nursery rhymes. It’s really quite sweet, she used to teach me the same ones when I was a little girl, way back in the late eighties.
