Dear daughter...

What do you have against sleep? Really...what is it? Why do you insist upon falling asleep for 20 minutes in the car on the way to pick up brother from preschool? Who told you that was an acceptable nap for the day? How can you sleep through J's whistle in an attempt to wake you? How can you ignore hearing your name 293 times without cracking an eyelid? Why do you fight a REAL nap after your carcatnap and then howl/fuss/whine for the last three hours of awake time because you are tired? Why are you STILL upstairs fussing and complaining? Why must you always do this on the days that I NEED you to take a good nap? Like today for example, a Halloween festival and a laundry list of people who must see you both in all your Halloween glory. Why do you think 20 minutes will last you the rest of the day? Why, dear daughter, why?

Love,
Mommy

**To all of you who normally see us on Halloween...don't hold your breath...baby girl may not make it that long.**
