Napping....

Ever notice that small children hate to nap?  In fact, they fight it most of the time.  Of course, mom and dad would love to lay down and take a power snooze.  I used to think my mother was nuts on the weekends when she would stretch out for an hour or so.  Now, I would love to do that everyday!!

The last few days, I've not been feeling well with allergies and my medicine is wiping me out.  Along with being 8 months pregnant and not sleeping well at night, I've had to stretch out a little each day.  

Here's the issue.  I've explained to my kids that I really need the rest.  So far, in the last two days, I've been woken up to see if my son could sit in the chair in the living room with me, to ask about getting a piece of gum, and my personal favorite: if a friend can come over to play.  Being woken up is not helping my answering them, I've been downright yucky-I need to work on that.  Bless their hearts, they'll never know until they have children of their own. 

Right now, I really want to move to Spain and enjoy a siesta everyday!!

I'm with you on the siesta, and I have nothing like your excuse for needing one!

For the past couple of weeks, I haven't been sleeping well due to allergies. I pray that you can get some rest!

Blessings,
Lynn
