Too Happy to Sleep

Dear Vinny,

Last night, I was really tired and definitely ready to go to sleep. You were not as tired as I was, but you didn't protest when we went upstairs and read some books, and rocked in the rocking chair. Then we went into the bedroom to lie down. At first you lay there quietly but after a few minutes you started screeching with joy for some reason. I told you it was sleepy time, but you didn't seem to care. You kept wiggling while my eyes closed because I was so tired. At one point I opened my eyes and beheld your enormous grin beaming happiness at me. I tried to remain stoic so as not to encourage you, but I burst out laughing. My little boy was too happy to sleep!

Love,
Mommy
