Wandering Along the Path: Right Speech

I went to my grandson's house early yesterday, so we could play and get relaxed.  For the first time I was putting him to bed at night.  Yes, I've done it a million times for nap, but not the nighttime big deal.  When I babysit him at night he's already asleep or my daughter puts him in and I watch the monitor.  He was great, and other than ordering me to sing song after song while I was rocking him, everything proceeded according to plan.  When I put him in his crib, he directed me to shut the door.  That was at seven thirty and as I watched the monitor downstairs, I could see he was lying down but his eyes were wide open.  He finally closed his eyes at eight.  He evidently has many issues to think about.  That mind of his is going a mile a minute.  This morning his daddy texted me that he was disappointed I wasn't there when he awoke.  I believe we may be ready for an overnight at my house soon.  I'm going to suggest my daughter buy one of those "Going to Grandma's House" overnight bags for kids, and I can begin to talk it up with him.
