All By Yourself

Because of continued nighttime breathing concerns, Jack still sleeps in a toddler bed next to our bed. That way, if anything happens at night, we are right there next to him to tend to him. It's hard enough to wake up and figure things out in the middle of the night. I cannot imagine having to wake up enough to walk down the hall.

Recently my little brother got a new bed and passed down his twin bed to Jack. We haven't put the bed up yet but we've got the mattress in Jack's room. Yesterday, Jack went in there, knocked the mattress down from where it was leaning against the wall and said, "Lie down, go sleep. Jack sleep big bed." I responded, "You want to sleep on your big bed?"
J: Yes! Jack sleep big bed.
M: No more little bed?
J: No more little bed.
M: You sleep in here?
J: Right here!
M: All by yourself.
J: By yourself [pronouns are still confusing for him]
M: No Mama, no Daddy?
J: [pauses, thinking it over] No Daddy.
