We are going to a wedding tomorrow evening and Keren will be baby sitting for us. Eli has been very mommy needy, and we have been preparing by talking to him about what is going to happen.

At bed time tonight Grace says to me, “Tomorrow, if Eli is crying because he wants mommy, I’ll just tell Keren, ‘Turn on the TV and let him watch woofs…and give him a sweetie.'”

And she carries on, “And if he wakes up in the middle of the night, I’ll wake up and tell Keren, ‘Just pick him up, give him a cuddle and take him to your bed, and when mommy and daddy come then put him in their bed.'”
