How much sleep do you get at night?

I didn't have to work late the other night. Whoot. Sleep, sweet sleep!

Until  my daughter woke up at about 12:30am.

"You turned off the story!! Why did you do that?"

She was talking about the cd that had put her to sleep about 4 hours earlier.

"I didn't turn it off. It was done. You fell asleep."

"You turned it off....(Bawling)... I want to listen to it again. Please."

Now, before I continue, you need to know that this is the girl who has a little cd player in her room, but will only listen to music and books on cd if they are played in the big steroe that is in the loft area outside all the rooms.

"Okay. I can go and put it in the cd player in your room and you can listen to it in your room."

"No! I want to listen to it on the stereo!"

"I am not going to turn that one on because it is too late and it will wake everyone else up. So you can listen to it in your room or not. The other option is you can come sleep on my floor and I will let you listen to soft music here."

"No! I want to listen to it out there. You are so mean. Blah blah blah." This went on until about 1am. Finally, I told her she was going to sleep on my floor and listen to the music.

There was another 10 minutes of her crying that the music wasn't loud enough...that she couldn't hear it. Wasn't there any better music to listen to? Oh, and I hate that blanket. No nevermind, I like it.

Finally, by 1:30, all was quiet.

Until 2am when she woke up to tell me that she couldn't breath out of her nose and could I help her breath. I told her that she had to stop crying
