Today I am thankful for naptime. Not for me, Lord knows I can't fit in a nap anymore. But I am very, very, very thankful for my children's naptime.
Elijah completely conked out this afternoon and took a 3 hour nap. It might have had something to do with the multiple bare-bottom spankings he got before the nap (that's an entirely different story...). Whatever it was, it was great because I got a little me time and Elijah was much happier when he woke up :-)
Zoe, on the other hand, doesn't take naps unless she is being held, rocked, and bounced simultaneously. And don't think you can stop for longer than 2 seconds because she will wake up again. But thankfully she is small and light and most of the time doesn't get on my nerves when I'm holding her. Granted, I can't get anything done around the house, but I can at least have some time to play on the internet, watch a movie, read, whatever quiet activity I enjoy that I can't do when Elijah is awake. Zoe does sleep at night though, bless her heart, so I haven't gone completely insane yet... :-P
Oh yes, I am thankful for naptime :-)
