I taught Charlie what a pinky promise was today, and he really loved the concept. Then tonight I pinky promised him I would sleep on the floor next to his crib. In my defense, he just wouldn't go to bed and I was desperate to sneak out and get some work done!

So now I am done with my work and facing a quandary. I doubt he will remember our pinky promise in the morning. But at the same time, I want to teach him to honor his commitments.

So should I sneak back into his room, even though I know it will leave me with significant neck and back pain all day tomorrow? Or do I sleep on the king-sized bed and then sneak into his bedroom in the morning before he's awake?
