Excuses for not sleeping...

On last Sunday, Yuxin went shopping with Papa, Mama and Mama's family. She enjoyed herself a lot. She ran, jumped and climbed around everywhere. So this day, Yuxin did not have a proper nap time.

When we went back at 9pm+, Yuxin was too tired that she slept in the car all the way till home. I happliy thought she could sleep all the way to the next morning. Who know, Yuxin woke up in the middle of the night, 3am.

So Yuxin woke up, came to me and said "脚痛痛(Leg pain), 擦(Put on) Cream cream". Of course, I woke up and did what she requested. In my heart I know she was finding excuses not to sleep and I hoped that she would go back to sleep after I applied cream on her leg.

Hahaha... Wishful thinking... After a while, Yuxin woke up again. This time she said " 手痛痛(Hand pain), 擦Cream cream". Again, I applied for her and put her back to sleep. Guess what's next. "脸痛痛(Face pain), 擦Cream cream". The cycle repeat again.

Can you guess again what's next? " 额头痛痛(Forehead pain), 擦Cream cream". Oh my god! I told myself I must think of something to let her sleep. Finally, I offered her something that she could go back to sleep quietly. Hahaha... Very simple... I gave her MILK! Luckily, the milk saved my 'beauty sleep'...
