L was having a rough patch in school. He was also falling asleep in scriptures and prayer. So we shifted things 2 hours earlier to get him going to sleep during the 7 o'clock hour. Scriptures and prayer at 6:45 seems really early. But we are brushing teeth and reading stories then snuggling up and going to sleep around 7:30. I wake up again at 8:30 and then hang out a little more with the girls and P, then we have another bedtime.
The good thing is that the boys wake up between 6 and 7am because they have had plenty of sleep. That can be hard on the weekends. But I'm grateful that they can have this structure in their lives.
