The "Yeah" Factor

Our car is still broken down, stuck in suburan Hellvue. Ugh.

Since M. is starting to get clients our schedules are getting really crazy. Last night was my first time ever putting Finn to bed without her. It made me realize how much I depend on us parenting together. I really missed the Yeah Factor.

The Yeah Factor goes like this.

Me: "I think he's ready for bed."

M.: "Yeah, he's ready for bed."

Sounds silly. Seems simple. I really rely on having M. around to confirm my observations when it comes to the Little Dude. Last night I had to wing it. I thought he was tired but there was no one to confirm it for me. I had to trust myself.

I was right.

Mr. Bo Finner was out like a light by 7:30 and mommy go to pay the bills before the collectors started knocking on the door. And I got to learn a little bit about trusting myself.

Then M. came home, kissed our little boy and we all went to bed.
