- When my son was a baby, we did sleep training.
- Now that he is 2, he's been co-sleeping with us in bed, along with our dog.
- Co-sleeping means everyone in our family gets more rest.
I'm just about to drift into sleep when I hear, "Mama! The bee!" I turn to my 2-year-old son, Kirby, in the bed next to me. He had been almost asleep, too. There is no bee.
