Bedtime

When I was five, bedtime was pretty cool
At nine O clock I would go brush my teeth
I got some goodnight hugs and kisses too
Then it was "lights out little man, sweet dreams"

I always hated bedtime. I only like it NOW becuause by the time I finally get to bed in my adult life (like after midnight or later) I am good and READY for it. haha. Nice thoughts here of a child. Oh, Mtch, aren't you kind of in my age group?? That is why I am astounded you never heard of doctor Kildaire! I have a hubbie who doesn't remember any songs from the era we grew up in!! I bet you remember lots of the songs. LUv, Andrea
