But Mommy Still Needs Naptime!!!!

Its gone...so gone... I think the days of a 2 hour semi break in the middle of the day are over. My 3 year old won't nap anymore.

I am mourning the loss of this time. There are 5 stages right? Denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance. I have been in denial for a couple of weeks now. I started to see the writing on the wall just prior to our last vacation, but I still wanted to believe it was only temporary. The bargaining began about that time as well. "We can have ice cream when you wake up if you take a nap". Today I am dealing with the anger. Most likely because the darling was up until 11:30p last night because she fell asleep around 5 yesterday afternoon watching TV. So today as I was insistent that she "TAKE A NAP" which only resulted in her laying in her bed for an hour and having an accident (which hasn't happened for quite some time now). Now on to depression...
