This was so sweet, I could completely imagine your pink and blue shiny blanket. That's a great memory.

I don't think my parents ever put me to bed.

Thank you!

What was it like, for you, if you feel like telling?
How do you feel about it?

I guess I always remember just being a very independent child, both by design and necessity with having a younger brother with special needs. I have some memories of my father carrying me from the station wagon and into the house to bed. But I think as far as a nightly routine I just kissed my parents good night and went to bed whenever I wanted. I was always sleepy early so bedtime wasn't really a struggle. We had a two bedroom house when I was little, I had my own room and my brother slept with my parents. I know as a mother I always looked forward to bedtime with my son, getting his pajamas, reading to him. It's one of those milestones that I always try to remember the end of...when was the last time we did that?

My mother always said my brother got the time and I got the money :) We both got what we needed really.

Oh, wow. Sounds like you were a very strong and responsible child. Sounds hard, too.

Aww, what was it like with your son? I don't think I knew you had a son!
