I hope Josie dosen't kill me for sharing her little secret, but she had night terriors as a little girl. So MY solution was for her to sleep with me. At 13 it is a little old for her to be in the same bed as me, but I need my sleep, so our solution was for us to share a room. It works pretty well, she goes to sleep pretty fast and sleeps the sleep of the dead, so as long as she is asleep I can do anything and it won't bother her.
Well last week we went to go get her point shoes. She was so exited! She has worked very hard and long for this. When we got home and she was sharing them, my sister thought it would be fun to tease her about "hiding" or "taking" them. Josie went along with it and it didn't bother her. Or so I thought. That night we had a night terror. I don't know if you have experience it before, but she starts screaming, sobbing, and seems to be wide awake but dosn't see or hear you. In her dream someone stole her shoes and there were no more anywhere so she never got to go up on point. After a long while of not being able to wake her out of it I found a solution!
Did you see what finally made her go back to a peaceful sleep? Yep, she slept with her shoes!
I keep telling you.. she is a goofy child!! But at least you put the correct picture of her up!
