Nigh-Nigh

We sing the nigh-nigh song at bedtime -- Alex's & Andy's. Soon both will be hitting the hay at the same time. Soon. Andy goes to bed at about 10:30, Alex at 9:00.

FYI, (Carolyn and my parents know the words and the tune) the song is below.

"It's nigh-nigh time,
It's nigh-nigh time,
It's nigh-nigh time for __________" (fill in appropriate name)

This song also works for bathy time and nappy time and on the rare occasion dinner time.

So at nigh-nigh time, Andy has taken to waving good-bye to his loved ones -- five little fingers, opening and closing together in harmony with doe eyes pleading to first his father and then his mother.

Last night, he broke my heart, waving to me as he cried to be held. Moments after closing his door though he was silent (and sleeping I hope).
