This incident happened quite sometime back about two three months ago. I didn't get a chance to write it down and today it came to mind to blog about it as I am thankful to God for His protection over Qi Ning.
It happened on the wee hour one morning when I was up nursing Qi Yu. I can hear the sound of Qi Ning rolling in the bed. I turn to her direction and saw the bolster falling down the bed and next I saw Qi Ning rolling down from the bed! My heart sank seeing what take place and I was hoping the odd against odd that she would land on the bolster but the chance is really slim.
God must have heard my silence cry and yes she landed on the bolster "beautifully" as if she was just rolling down to hold on to the bolster. She was not even awaken by the fall, hubby heard my cry, woke up to see Qi Ning on the bolster down on the floor and he just carried bolster and her to the bed. And my girl just continue on sleeping! :)
At that moment my heart filled with thanksgiving, if not because of God's protecting hands, I can foresee a big "bangolow" in Qi Ning's forehead. The next day I told her of the incident she just smile, I wonder if she was aware of the fall or not!
So nowadays when I am up nursing Qi Yu middle of the night, I am always on the alert, listening to Qi Ning's movement just in case she roll down the bed again. I am trying to get her to move to her own bed as she is still squeeze in the middle of hubby and me. She is not willing to leave our bed and mummy isn't insisting as well. I dunno whether I should insisit that she move to her own bed now or wait till she ready then move her. If I insisit, I foresee some battle and teary nights.
Actually after the incident, I have been sweet talking to her and tell her to sleep in her own bed. This how the conversation goes during the night time before chinese new year:
Mummy: Qi Ning, you jie jie oledi, must sleep in your own bed, Qi Yu also sleep in her own baby cot.
Qi Ning: Wait, Chinese new year ok
Mummy: After CNY you must sleep on your own bed ok?
Qi Ning: ok mummy
During CNY, when were at my mum's and in-law, she did keep to her word, sleep on her own on and not squeeze between us. Even when I offer her to hop on the bed to sleep with us for a while early in the morning she would refuse telling me that CNY oledi she must sleep on her own. So i thought she would keep to her words and do the same when we returned home.
Alas, the first night at home after CNY is back to the usual, she wanna sleep on mummy's bed! And now when I ask her to sleep in her own bed, she tells me wait till her three year old birthday. See, how clever my girl is at bargaining!

haha..she is so clever to bargain with you oo..
Hubby wants to move Jo to his own bed too, but i insisted not now as i already got used to sleep with him.
Aiyo.. now only moving her out? Should have done that before Qi Yu arrive.. Luckily Qi Ning is a good natured girl and didn't think it was because of Qi Yu that she has to be 'demoted'.
btw, what happened to all your posts after this?
