I Have Sleeping Rituals

I remember when I was little on Christmas eve my brothers and I would all be put in the bath at once and scrubbed ready for Santa coming. We were far too excited to go to bed or sleep so playing with boats in the bath would be drawn out. We would all go slowly downstairs to get our pyjamas on. We miraculously got very thirsty and needed drinks, anything to pass the time. Every year we would be put to bed early and have an excruciating wait to fall asleep. But every year Santa eventually came! :)

It was agony for me too until we started going to Midnight Mass. Not that Father Christmas had come by the time we got back, but it was easier to go to sleep afterwards, and it did shorten the time till his arrival.

I was around ten. I had learnt to keep my feelings and boredom to myself. @Gumba1000
