Bedtime stories with Dr. Seuss

Me to my kids: "Bye, I'm going to my tennis lesson. You better be asleep before I'm back!"

later...

(I've been back for 20 minutes already. Kids are still awake)

Me: "Was it hard to get the kids to bed tonight?"

Warren: "I picked the wrong book. It was too long. It was a bedtime book by Dr. Seuss. The problem is- he writes too well. It's too interesting. I actually want to read the whole thing."

Thanks a lot Dr. Seuss. Did you ever hear of trying to keep your kids bedtime routine to an hour?

That happens everytime we read Seuss. We are fans! My kids - Claire esp - loves The Sneetches. It usually takes 30 or so minutes just to get through that one.
