Mystery Solved!

As you all know, Finley has been struggling with sleeping for some time. For the last couple of weeks, we have been working very hard on a bedtime schedule and thought we had been making some headway by letting her sleep in her nest in the corner of the room. Naptime seems to be no big deal but once nighttime rolls around, she does everything she can to keep Mommy in that room until she falls asleep. Long ago, she told me she was scared of something and pointed to the birds I made as window valances. I held her up to look at them and Cam assured me it wasn't the birds, but it was what was outside the window that made her scared. Well, tonight, I knew it was going to be a tough one because before she even went into her nest, she asked me about "scary dreams". She cried and cried when I left and did not want to be in her room. I went downstairs so I wouldn't be tempted to go in and save her, thus making her stay up even longer. Cam went in her room while I was downstairs and I came up to find that she was sleeping. Cam made me go into the room to see what he had to do to get her to sleep and you can see what I found. I guess when he was putting the sheet up, it sagged in the middle and she made him pin it up because she could still see "the colors". For some reason, she's not afraid of the birds on the pillows she sleeps on and the night light bird...weird! And after all the work I put into those cute little guys. I guess I'll be taking them down in the morning...
