Strange

This is O's bedside table, a strange thing to blip I know. O is very strange particular, bordering on suffering from OCD. Everything has to be in exactly the same position every night when she goes to bed. The other morning she claimed that she had a 'terrible night sleep' as she just couldn't sort things out on her bedside table. She has been known to wake me up at 3am just to come and put something in the correct place. Usually on the nights when D sleeps through. Grrrrr!

The items are (in no particular order):

- A bedside night light which has to be touching the green edge and the water bottle next to it.
- A water bottle which has to be placed on a coaster with a picture of a fairy on it. The coaster has to be touching the green edge but it's very important that the bottle does not touch the green edge.
- A Guardian Angel given to her by her Godmother (Blipper - Learning day by day) on her Naming day. Again it must be touching the green edge.
- A Princess torch given to her by her brother last Christmas.
- A smoke alarm box (I have absolutely no idea why she insists on having this).
- A Hama bead heart which she made on holiday in Germany.
- A toy hippo given to her at the hotel we stayed at in Paris.
- A Mickey and Minnie Mouse ornament given to her by Grandma and Grandad a couple of years ago after a trip to Spain. There is now an orangutan on the bench which she got free with something sometime.
- A photograph of her with two friends and a man dressed as a monkey at Planckendael zoo in the summer.
- Four tickets with dinosaurs on, from The Natural Scientific Museum in Brussels. They have to be exactly on top of one another and are not allowed to touch anything else. Yes, there are also two dead daisies on the tickets which she insists on keeping.
- Six different attachments for her Princess torch lined up and touching each other.
- Tissue for what she calls a 'smelly nose'. The tissue must also be touching the green edge.

Kids are weird. Or maybe it's just mine?
