Is there anything more delightful to purchase than bedding for little kids? Between the many crib sheets, bed sheets, and — recently — a new set of bunk beds, I have derived so much joy from these purchases over the years.

In fact, I was so compelled to wring every ounce of happiness from this stage of life where the boys have such sweet interests (and such little insistence on making these selections themselves), that I ended up with 4 different prints for the new bunks: dinosaurs, vehicles, construction, and animals.

I also choose to believe that even as they age and grow, and their interests mature, and their long limbs sprawl across these prints, and they manage to sleep past 6am in these very beds… they will surely still appreciate these sheets as much as I do. If I’m wrong, don’t tell me.
