Zq able to self-sleep!

Well, i think beside his weaning on pacifier when he was about 20month, this is another significant achievement and im very happy that he able to make it! :)

It has been a routine that we have to "gei-gei" sleep beside him everynight when it's his bedtime. After changing his diaper, brush his teeth and read a bedtime story, he would expect Dear or me to sit beside him and "sleep together". I started to feel very tired over this, and he is a toddler now, should be able to self-soothe to sleep. He needs to learn to be more independent.

So i started to train him to self sleep. On his 1st nap, he cried and asked me not to leave the room. But i kept ensuring him that he's a big boy now and he can sleep by himself. He needs to be brave as he is very safe, his Mickey and Zhuzhu are with him. And he will able to see Mama on the 1st moment he wake up. Then i went out his room and closed the door. He weeped and stood at the doorside, kept open and closed the door softly, didn't dare to step out of the room. I kept quiet and observed. After about 20mins, i went into the room and told him the same thing, to assure him again, he climbed onto his bed and closed his eyes quite unwillingly and ultimately fall asleep.

And it's a breeze after which. He made it and able to self-sleep! :)
Though sometimes he would still give me the pitiful look, but i just returned with a bright smile and having strong confidence in him that he can do it. I am so happy that he able to self-sleep within such a short period. My next task is toilet-trained, and it's definately a very challenging one! Wish me GOOD LUCK! :)
