SubscribeYesterday, I took my son’s crib apart which was the most useless piece of furniture in his babyhood since he never liked to sleep in it. We co-sleep and we like it. We have no regrets whatsoever. But as he is getting bigger, we will eventually train him to sleep on his own bed.
We know for sure he will never sleep with us forever. Who knows, when he is fifteen he will start to move out of our bed and needs more privacy to himself. LOL! His second cousin has outgrown a fire engine bed so our son is taking over. It was handed down to him from a family friend’s child and now it’s our son’s turn to own one.
Our boy is only 18 months old but I guess we can start from there. The bed is good for 24 months – 4 year olds and he still doesn’t appreciate the need to sleep in a nice toy bed. Anyway, I found out at Amazon what it costs which is a whooping $599 for a piece of plastic.
We sure saved a lot of money from taking other people’s junk. Well, not a complete junk at all since it’s still in pretty good shape. We got more new bags of used clothing as well. So you see, people in this country including kids want more than they can actually use or have for the rest of their lives. So many stuff (toys, clothes, etc.) for them to handle they find it hard to get rid of sometimes. They all go to the basement or storage in no time. That’s a lot of money down the drain for some families. Perhaps not for the rich – they won’t really mind.

That is a nice toddler bed. Maybe if we will buy one for our son he would get excited to sleep in it. How I wish!
