Some evenings, the boys collapse with exhaustion and fall asleep within minutes of the bedtime we think is
best for them. Other evenings, they go wild (really, crazy wild) for a half hour, or even an hour, before finally settling down to sleep. We used to fight them on these wild nights, but we've now come to accept their need to get some energy out and have learned to play this game with some finesse. So, when they should be sleeping, we often find Ko wandering around with weird objects on his head, laughing uncontrollably or both boys staring out the window in their room and during the afternoon on weekends when they should be awake, we often find them passing out in their car seats in utter exhaustion. It's a strange world.
