I can tell they’re both so much happier with Mariah sleeping there…they both love it!
My daughter has chosen to sleep on a mattress on the floor and not use her bed frame. Her older brother and some of their friends think this is “cool” and have also done this. I don’t “get it” but it’s a small compromise during the teenage years so we allow it. In this case it works out as I don’t have to worry about Mariah falling/rolling off or getting hurt jumping up and down.
I’m still concerned about how cold it is during the day so I really appreciate all the advice! I'm going to the store this weekend (after payday) to see what I can find. I truly don’t know what we would have done without all the great advice here since Mariah joined our family!
THANKS!
PS Nancy 1999 – I too don’t mind it being cooler, as I too get terrible hot flashes at night! It’s tough to get older! |
Oh that sounds like a perfect solution, especially with the mattress on the floor, I wonder why kids think this is so cool? At least you don't have to worry about any falls. I'm not sure I could have managed hot flashes and teenagers at the same time.
