If you ask your mom to lie down with you, she’s going to fall asleep…
She will wake up in a panic and head downstairs to clean up the kitchen…
When she is cleaning the kitchen, she will notice that someone left a cup in the living room.
When she goes to get the cup out of the living room, she will notice that the TV was left on.
When she goes over to turn off the TV, she will see that it is HGTV and they are playing her favorite show.
She will sit to watch her favorite show.
When she sits to watch her favorite show, she will remember that her husband just bought ice cream.
She will go to get her favorite ice cream and see the messy kitchen.
She will start cleaning the kitchen again and hear the washer beep.
She will go upstairs to get the laundry out of the washer and she will hear a voice.
When she turns to find the voice, she sees a 3 year old standing at her door.
She will go back to tuck the three year old in and she will hear “Will you sleep in my bed?”
She will lie down in bed and fall asleep, again.
When she wakes up ten minutes later, she will go to her room.
In her room, she will pick up the shoes and toys that were left in there.
She will put them into the closet, passing the bathroom along the way.
When she sees the bathtub, she will realize that she meant to clean it today.
Once it is clean, she decides she should enjoy a clean tub.
When the tub is clean, she puts on her favorite pajamas and turns on the show that she taped from before.
She will want to lay down, in bed, to watch her show.
When she gets into her BED, she thinks about all of the things that she forgot to do.
Thinking of the things that she forgot to do will remind her that she has an ongoing list on her dresser.
She gets out of her bed and finds the list.
Seeing the list reminds her that she wanted to leave little notes on the kid’s floors that say “GOOD MORNING!” so they will wake up and find them in the morning.
She writes their notes and takes them to their rooms.
Seeing them sound asleep reminds her that she is exhausted.
She goes to her room, gets into her bed and falls asleep for a few hours.
Then she hears someone call for her, because if you ask your mom to lie down with you, she’s going to fall asleep…♥
Ps- here is our bed (that we think is the absolute best bed anyone could ever own! Seriously!)
I have Fibro pain and one of the culprits on causing alot more pain is a bad nights sleep. It is so important to sleep well and get a good nights rest to fight that pain. The muscles need recuperation
I need a good night’s sleep for two reasons: I’m pregnant and our mattress is 10 years old!
I feel like I work through my sleep! My mind stays on the hospital and the potential scenarios that could happen. If it isn’t that it is the back pain that came with the job and the stress of lifting patients with epidurals, since I am a labor and delivery nurse. Thanks so much for the chances to win this!
I do the same thing! (always working in my mind)
That blurb just explained my life to a T! lol I think I need an IntelliBED… we bought our mattress about 5 years ago and it is now the most uncomfortable thing EVER to sleep on.. most nights I wake up and go sleep on the couch :/ We’ve been looking at new mattresses so I’m adding this one to my list to check out.. NOW! Thanks for sharing!!

Oh my goodness- I am not just saying this, but this bed has changed our lives. Mickey & I sleep SO SO SO much better!!
I need a good nights rest because I’ve been sick for the last 3 weeks and haven’t had a full night of sleep plus I have a 3 year old that likes to get in my bed! 🙂
I need a goodnights sleep becuase I toss and turn all night on my 25 yr old mattress. I messed up when I opted for a larger bed with a cheaper mattress.
I stay awake for awhile before falling asleep
When i first get to bed usually my daughter ends up running in and asking for a hug before she settles down. Then I usually have to find my pillows because she takes them with her during the day and puts them in the living room. It takes me a while to settle in as i toss and turn for awhile before i get comfortable
Tossing, turning, snoring from husband and dog and worrying over every possible thing I can about my kids–takes me quite awhile to get my visit from Mr Sandman.
