Its 4 am and my son is STILL awake. We have to get up in less than 2 hours to take Jason to work. Then Alex has school at 9.. and yet.. At 4am. He is still laying in his bedroom calling out to me.. Mom.. I cant sleep.. 
  I was in bed. I laid down.. I tried to sleep.. he called out to me every 5 minutes.. makes it hard to sleep.. Finally I came out to the computer.. ( so that jason could sleep at least) and what does the kid do?? He comes out to..@@ Oh man.. So I said.. ok.. lets try a warm shower.. maybe that will help.. So I get the water running.. and he takes a very noisy shower.. Swear this kid has NO volume control whatsover.. lol.. So now he is back in bed... Fingers crossed that he falls asleep.. Cause I KNOW he is going to be a monster when I wake him.. and that will only be the start of a fun day.. Since tomorrow he also has a appt with the dentist at 2 o'clock.. Fun fun.. 
  Thats actually what brings us back to the stem of the not sleeping. I fight with him daily over teeth brushing.. big pain in the butt over it.. and now he is upset cause he is afraid the dentist will yell at him.. To which I point out.. YET AGAIN.. that while the dentist will point out what you havent done.. and will tell you why its a bad thing to have done that. He WON'T actually YELL at you.. Yelling is what mommy does when she has to take you to the Dentist and she only got 45 minutes of sleep.. 
 Which leads me to my question?? Why in the world is he more scared of the Dentist than of mom?? That is sooo not right.

Oh Val, he knows you love him with all your heart and would never hurt him. The dentist on the other hand well..
Hope you both are sleeping now. We have to get you on a normal sleep pattern..
