So far we’ve had the best day of the month today. No fits, no tantrums, no raised voices. Just a happily playing child and a long afternoon nap, in which yours truly finished out the necessary work of the day, so that even if distractions occur tonight, I’ll have no reason to rush to complete anything. Truly unusual in a very nice way.
Of course this afternoon respite may very well come with a heavy price. long afternoon naps usually lead to a cranky child who is up very late into the night. I should have woken him up after an hour or so, but honestly I just couldn’t bring myself to do it. he rarely takes naps, so when he does I tend to let him.
Long naps also tend to signify the looming need for clothes in the next larger size, and of course a new pair of shoes. Of course this is true with any child, but the long naps actually give us a heads up to save a dollar or two for that new wardrobe. We get warning. Nice, isn’t it?
For now i’m off to trade my narrator’s pen for my Donmestic God cape and apron combination. I have laundry and dishes to do.
I hope all of your days went just as well as mine did.

Hopefully the nap wont make for an exhausting evening?

BTW: That was a really FUNNY sentence
meleah rebeccah,
Good days happen pretty often. But when he’s not feeling well… Um. Yeah, not so good.
What’s funny about it? I really do have a cape and apron combo…. O.K., so it’s an old blanket I tie around my neck, but it makes me feel like I have super powers!
