The Bowl

Most kids have blankies or teddy bears. When they go to bed they have to have that special blanky or bear. Some kids might even sleep with a hot wheel or a toy of that type. Not Paden. Paden's cuddly of choice is his bowl. This all started last December when Paden got sick. He started throwing up in the middle of the night so I got the biggest bowl I could find and put it next to his bed. Every time he needed it it was right there. Well Paden started getting sick monthly. Every 3rd Saturday of the month he would wake up in the middle of the night and start throwing up. The bowl became a permanent fixture in the bed and now he has it every night. I try to put other things in his bed instead, things a little easier to cuddle with, but he wants the bowl. The habit I think should be an easier one to break. Hopefully he will just outgrow the bowl. He won't want to take it to slumber parties. Anyway, I have a few pictures of Paden and his bowl for your enjoyment. I also included a demonstration video. I hope this makes you all feel a little better about any little quirks that your kids might have. Just tell yourself, "It could be worse. He could sleep with a bowl".
