Maslow's Pyramid

Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs is a psychology theory that groups needs into levels on a pyramid. The idea is that humans have certain basic needs that must be fulfilled, before they can focus on the higher order needs. According to Maslow, the basic needs are : the need to breathe, the need for water, the need to eat, the need to dispose of bodily wastes, the need for sleep, and the the need to regulate body temperature.
After one weekend in Bonn, I think we have taken care of the first four. Sleep is still a bit of a challenge, as SJ is having a difficult time adjusting to the time change. This morning we found her asleep under her bed. It appears she fell out of bed and then rolled under it. She was really far under there, so we had to pick up the bed and move it. We were afraid that she would wake up and be afraid of her surroundings. However, she must have been pretty tired since she slept through the whole procedure.
