Since Jess hasn't felt well the past couple days, I thought that after we had our lunch out today I'd have her lay down and take a nap. I had a headach so I sat in the chair with a hot mask on my eyes. I had to promise her that as soon as she woke up she could watch a video. For some reason she was wound up and wouldn't be quiet or settle down. Here's part of our conversation:
Jess: Mom.
Mom: What
Jess: Better now.
Mom: That's good, Jess, but you still need a nap.
Jess: Mom!
Mom: What, Jess.
Jess: Nap, video, iPad, snack.
Mom: Yes, Jess, as soon as you wake up you can have a snack and watch a video and play on your iPad.
Jess: M-o-m!
Mom: JESSIE! Lay down and close your eyes!
Jess: Like this? (She lays flat on her back and spreads out her arms and legs.)
Mom: Whatever!
Jess: Mom.
Jess: Mom.
Jess: Mom.
Jess: MOM! (I'm trying to ignore her, which doesn't work.)
Mom: Yes, Jess.
Jess: Better now!
Mom: Great, Jess, now close your eyes and go to sleep.
Jon enters the bedroom.
Jon: Jessie, you are supposed to be quiet and go to sleep.
Jess: All better now!
Jon: I'm glad, Jess, but you need a nap and so does Mom. She has a headache.
Jon exits.
Read and repeat each segment above at least 3 times each. And, I am not kidding.
Did she finally go to sleep? Beats me, but I did!
cute :) She misses me that's why!! Love you & miss you too!!!!
