i don't know whether 4 1/2 year olds are supposed to still nap or not, but in our house, if we can get eden to nap, it's a good thing. especially b/c on days when she doesn't, by the time 5PM rolls around things (and by things i mean eden, carter, mom, and even lucy the dog) are getting a little testy. the other reason i like e to nap is b/c the only way i can get her to fall asleep these days is if i lay down with her, so it is a free nap for mom. some days this does not work, b/c she puts her face about 1 inch from mine and asks questions like, "why were there no donuts at church this week? did they forget that the kids really need them?". other days it works fabulously, b/c i usually fall asleep before she does and then she has no choice but to turn around and go to sleep too.
yesterday we both fell asleep and when i opened my eyes this dude was staring right at me. i was slightly disturbed. i mean, who wants to be watched while they are sleeping?
