Mother knows best

"It is true that you may occasionally overhear a mother say
"'Children must have their naps,
It's mother who knows best.'
When what she really means by that
Is that she needs a rest. "

    LOL - I remember putting on DVD's for Sierra to watch whenever the baby fell asleep so I could nap. Did you manage to get a nap?

    I lurve me some naps.

    It almost looks like you're holding him down though, so he doesn't go anywhere to cause some noisy trouble. :)

    That's the rule #1...I am training to get a 10" nap when the kids watch their favourite show after school. They have agood time and I feel more patient !!

    What a funny picture! Some days I live for naptime. It always seems like we don't get one on those days, either. Hmmm....

    If you can think of a way to get mine to not give his up? I'll pay you tons of money. No nap in the last week. I'm living in fear. Congrats on catching some shut eye.
