Bentley sleeps on the top of the boys' bunk bed. The lower bunk is a double, so it's plenty big enough for two small boys. Sometimes Jake--feeling magnanimous--allows his older brother to share the bottom bunk for a while. He usually makes it clear that it's only for a short time, not the entire night.
Recently Bentley slept on the bottom bunk until 6:30AM at which time he decided to leave and come to grandma's bed. Jake was furious. I awoke to Jake screaming "No!" at the top of his lungs. I ran in to see what disaster had occurred. The previous night the cat had attacked Jake's feet and I had to bandage the scratch up. Not good at all. The cat was not the culprit tonight.
Jake was screaming because he didn't want Bentley to leave. Seriously? Jake not only wants to control when and if Bentley can sleep in the lower bed, he wants to control when and if Bentley can leave. Jake's not at his best when he's tired so, it was pretty ridiculous. I ended up with two boys in my bed.
Viva slept through the drama.
