Oh yes! NAPTIME! You just have to love that little bit of time where the house gets quiet. Toys lay still on the floor. No flashes of children as they blast through the room. There are no demands for drinks or something to eat. No talking or constant questions that need answered. Everything in the house gets peaceful...
Doesn't naptime bring about such wonderful peaceful atmosphere perfect for relaxing?
HECK NO!

So...How am I going to explain this one to my wife?
I remember those words I mumbled to myself just before I gave up scrubbing a once beautiful carpet.
All my son wanted to do is be a "big boy" and drink out of a regular bottle instead of a “sippy cup”, as he called it.
I just wasn't in the mood for a lengthy fight that day when he approached me with a bottle of juice. So I gave in and let him drink from the bottle.
His chest puffed out as if he were now a "big boy" and proceeded to carry the bottle up to the kitchen table. I smiled as I watched him sit it on the polished wood. I was thinking I did something that made him feel good and he that he was getting to be my "big boy".
I then turned to finish writing an article I had been working on forever . At least it seemed that way.
