Ode to Nap Time

Published by quadmama at 8:06 am under General Edit This

nappic1.jpgFarewell nap time, though I hardly knew ye.
A few great years…. how could you leave me?
That hour or two of peace was great.
Finally… a chance to exercise and lose weight.
Then, like a cruel joke,
My dreams of rest went up in smoke.
Afternoons once spent doing chores
Are now spent stumbling over toys on the floor.
It’s a small price to pay
To have my daughters in a good mood all day.
For if you return
(Oh, some days how I wish you’d return)
I know they would be awake late into the night…
And I would spend all the next day breaking up fights.

(Missing your child’s nap time? Feel free to leave your own verse in the comment section!)

    Love it! Fortunately, we still take naps in our home. I have noticed that they seem to be decreasing in length and consistency. They cannot be done yet, though, I still have so much I wish to get accomplished during those quiet and kid-free hours!
