"hey mom, can we stop at a giant store to get giant band-aids that can go around my whole finger?"

serious problems

Every morning, before doing anything else, Connor is supposed to make his bed and turn off his nightlight.  This morning, he comes up to me, very serious, and says "Mom, I can't make my bed because Scout doesn't want the covers on."

When I told him to make the bed and put Scout on top of it, he informed me that Scout really doesn't want to be on the covers either, and he's really close to falling asleep.

In the end, I told him he could make his bed around Scout and that would be sufficient.
