Why do we buy them beds?

Last night, as Warren and I were checking on our boys before we went to bed, we found this. Hmmmmmmm, where are Nate and Drew? I know we tucked them in, all snug in their beds........ I remember reading a story, telling them several times to brush their teeth, and listening to them say their prayers.







But here we have an empty bottom bunk.......


And an empty top bunk........


And two 5 year old boys, snuggled up on the FLOOR! :-)

I am clearly missing the novelty of sleeping on cheap polyester blankets, on the hard floor, and sharing one puny pillow. All the while with two comfy beds, complete with cozy flannel sheets within sight! I am getting OLD! :-)

Alli,

I never have understood this either. My kids did it too.

Yvette (my big USU student) loved to sleep on the floor even in high school. You never have to make your bed that way... its perfect and all your animals stay perfectly arranged.

I think its precious when siblings love each other enough to have sleep-overs on the floor.

I have that problem with our girls sneaking into our bed during the night!

I'm such a bedtime nazi, but that makes even ME say "aw"! I wonder if and when I put Milo back in his own room, my boys will end up like this. They're pretty noisy, though, so I think I'd thwart their efforts before the "aw moment" came.
My sister, Ally, and I used to sneak in to sleep next to each other all the time.

That is pretty funny!! Some things we will never be able to explain. At least they are sleeping by eachother. Maybe thats it, they want to be by eachother instead of in seperate beds.

Awwe. The love of brothers. My sister and I would do stuff like that too.
And yeah, I must be getting old too because that floor looks pretty hard.
