Bedtime? Who me?

At home in Boston, SJ is really pretty great about going to bed. Every night between 7 and 7:30 we brush her teeth, sing her a song, and she goes to bed, usually without any fuss at all.

This has not been the case in Germany. The initial challenge was of course the jetlag. It's hard to go to sleep when your body thinks it is only 1 o'clock in the afternoon.

However, an additional challenge is the fact that the days are rather long here. Sunset isn't until 9:30 p.m., and sunrise is at 5:45 a.m. This makes for a fairly early wake-up time, and a rather difficult battle to get an overtired SJ to bed at a reasonable hour.
