In Mourning....

Today, we officially mark the passing of our good friend, the morning nap. It's been three days since we've last seen our friend and fear that he has gone to those toddler safety gates in the sky. It was a good nap, every morning at 9 am he would take Johnathan into slumberland just long enough for me to wake up and get ready for the day. It was my hour. My hour to shower, get ready, sip my tea and have breakfast, watch the news and pack his snacks for the rest of the day. Now, it will be just another hour of playing outside or playing with trucks, running at full force. We hope the afternoon nap will be an even better friend and visit us for at least 2.5 hours or longer. But as I start showering at night and packing tomorrow's snacks today, we will always remember fondly, the morning nap. *sniff, sniff*
