When Justin left for Texas the kids slept in our bed with me and it has been a hard habit to break since we moved here. Maleiah was having a hard time sleeping without someone in her room, once she was asleep we would sneak out and inevitably she would come in our room in the middle of the night. I started telling her the week of her birthday that since she was going to be 5 (!) she had to sleep on her own. This was her first night (her birthday)...
And she has been so brave and I now have my evenings back! It was bittersweet, her growing up and showing me her independence. However, we still get visitors in the night. :)
