Unbecoming Pride

I'm particularly proud of myself tonight; I put Joey to sleep. Not a huge deal, except that he decided that he wasn't happy being with and thought to put it to me in not-to-be-misunderstood terms. He started really howling before I started on Cinderella and stopped just before it ended; my version of Cinderella is ~20 minutes long. The key point here is that I out-lasted him. Turns out crying really hard is hard work, and makes babies sleepy... eventually. He's down now; if he wakes up, I'm letting Julie get him.
