Well, we don't do "nap" time around here anymore. We do quiet time. Lily takes an hour in the afternoon to play quietly in her room. The other day when I went to check on her, this is what I found.
I love this time for you! It is just enough for boh you and Lily to have a break but doesn't MAKE her take a nap when her body is too old for it. Way to go that you listened to your daughter instead of your own wants. It is also great to have these unexpected surprises! I found that my kids took better naps and we were not frustrated with each other when I stopped forcing them to lay down and take a nap.
I am surprised that she was comfortable in that position. I wish my body was that flexible! I have a feeling if I got down in that position I would be there for a while!
I am blessed to have a wonderful husband and to be mom to Skyler, 8, and Lily 5. I try to find a balance in my life between God, family, work, and exercise. Sometimes it seems impossible, but I know I can do it! I am beginning a new journey in my life as I attempt to work again since both kids will be in school all day, everyday.
"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls."
