Bottom, Brain and Early Rising

We've been working on trying to get Eli down a little easier at night. To do this, we've been trying to get him to take earlier naps and go to sleep a little earlier. Last night was an exception. Scott had Back to School night, and I waited for him to get home to put Eli down since I was struggling with Keira. Unfortunately, Eli woke up earlier than ever this morning, even though he went down so late. I just asked him why he woke up early, and this is a direct quote, I actually asked him to repeat it so I could write it down...

"Every night when it's late my bottom hurts so I have to wake up early enough to make it better. My brain moves way down to my feet to make it better. So, I have to wake up more earlier to make it better."

I asked him where his brain was now, and he said, "Right about here," pointing to his knees. I think this bottom correlation has something to do with our struggle to get him to poop on the potty, but who knows...
