Taking a break from the cabin catch up to tell you a story about tonight. I took the girls to bed at 9:30, as is our new "routine". Alex always immediately lies down and is still and falls asleep easily. Gregorie and I have to sing. She is always super wound up and we sing and we sing until she comes dow from the rafters. Once she stops jumping on her sister's head, I leave. But it can take many songs. Or many repetitions of one song. In fact, the first night we tried The Routine she sang "You Are My Sunshine" until I fell asleep. So tonight we sang YAMS, Clementine, Alloutte, etc. Finally I started Row Row Your Boat -- thinking the sheer repetition of it would bore her down. So, she lied down and starting singing with me:
Row row row your boat gently down the street
Mary Mary Mary your life is a butter dream
