If you are one of those people that say, “I can’t nap or I never nap” YOU’RE LYING! The best years of school were when I was in nursery school and kindergarten and we actually had nap time scheduled into the day. I also had nap time in high school and college; it was called Mr. Whites History class and Sociology 101. When I had my son, his nap time became my nap time and oh how wonderful it was to get an hour of peace, quiet and relaxation. When he stopped napping, I was so sad. You just can’t take your eyes off of a toddler for a nap and not expect him to make you a pretty picture with your favorite red lipstick or see how much toilet paper he can fit in the toilet bowl.
The same thing rings true for puppies. Sienna’s nap time, is my quiet relaxation time. AND I LOVE IT! During this time I can watch TV, read, do a little cleaning, work on the computer, etc. It also gives me a breather from her alter ego and when she is in this altered state, NO ONE rests. So when she naps, it’s Heavenly. Not to forget to mention that when she’s napping she looks just like a little puppy angel.
When puppies and babies are awake they keep you busy; feeding, changing, soothing, chasing, etc. This is probably why the majority of the pictures of my son when he was a baby and my puppy, are usually when they are sleeping. The other reason for taking so many pictures while Sienna is sleeping is because I can’t believe that she can get comfortable enough to sleep in some of the positions she chooses. So when she’s napping, and I am not, you can usually find me with a camera in hand snapping off pictures of my beautiful and quiet puppy angel.
SHHHHHH – don’t wake the beast.
