Very nice selection, IMHO! :)

I agree about music at night. I do not like music when I'm going to sleep,
but my family does, so I've gotten rather better at going to sleep to it.

Be assured that likely "this too shall pass".  Most things are not worth
getting really bent out of shape over and that is one *huge* lesson of
parenthood that I found. It is a tough one to learn though.

Best.
