Sleepy Head

This year our church starts at 11:30. Its great for Sunday mornings. Everyone can sleep in and get ready at a relaxed pace. There is time for last minute tweaks of lessons, talks, or sharing times. However, its not so great for little 2 yr old boys who still need a nap. (And sometimes even 4 yr old sisters who could use one!) By the time we get done chatting and get home its usually close to 3 pm. Too late for a nap unless he falls asleep in the car ride home. A couple of weeks ago we decided to take a Sunday evening walk. We weren't gone long when Jacob started to have a melt-down. I put him on my shoulders in an attempt to distract him from this fight with the girls. It worked and we continued our walk, but by the time we got home, Jacob had lost the fight. It was barely seven, but we didn't hear from him again until 7am the next morning.

So cute! And lucky you to get a 12 hour stretch! I love it when that happens!
