NIGHTLY RITUALS

While in Denver, it was reassuring to me that Lexi insisted on her nightly rituals.

During the 2 1/2 years she lived with us it was horsey rides on grandpa's back. 

Every. Night. 

Now there are rituals of "head knocker", "jack and the beanstalk" and 3 or 4 others that I couldn't remember. 

The important thing is the ritual. 

She rules the roost, this child. 

And she continues try other delay tactics. 

But after prayer and story, 

there is finally 

this. 

And it is sweet.
