Time for Bed?

Yesterday at about 6:30, Emma took Eric into her room, told him to get into her bed, pulled the covers on him, gave him a couple toys to sleep with, turned the music on, and told him to go to sleep. She told him not to get out of bed, and to keep his eyes closed. Then she came and got me and told me to sleep on the floor (nice huh? why do I get the floor?), put a pretend blanket on me, gave me a toy, and told me to go to sleep too. She left and closed the door. A moment later she opened the door to check on us and again told us to stay in bed and go to sleep. Then she came in and joined me on the floor with another pillow and another toy. We asked if she wanted to go get some icecream ($1.00 scoop night at Baskin Robins baby), and she said "no, sleep first." I don't think she was tired either, she just really wanted us all to pretend we were sleeping. The only problem with this game as far as I can tell, is that I might actually fall asleep and shirk my parental duty. Otherwise I'm all for a good nap anytime. =)
