How should one dress when checking on a crying toddler in the middle of the night?
Well, according to Kiddo it is not in your underwear. When I first showed up she took one look at me and said through her tears "mama, can you put a shirt on?" "really?" I replied. She repeated her request. Whatever, I thought, and went to find a shirt.
I returned, she looked again, and continued "mama, can you wear pants?" I thought about refusing, but wasn't really in the mood for a tantrum about that, so left to find some pants.
Appropriately attired, I was now allowed to soothe her back to sleep. (Except she didn't fall asleep before I had to feed Babs, so Daddy came in to soothe, which started a new tantrum, until she gave up, and the two laid in bed until one or both of them fell asleep. All I know is that they were both in their respective beds the next time I woke to feed the baby.)
