Wisdom
Once there was a boy who hated taking naps. And although the Wise Woman who cared for him could see he was very tired, she couldn’t find a way to get him to go to sleep. She tried and she tried and she tried, but the boy who hated taking naps just would not nap. And because he was tired, the boy got cranky and impatient and just plain unhappy. And the Wise Woman saw what was happening and thought to herself, “I must find a way to get him to nap.” And the boy got tireder and tireder, and crankier and crankier. And the Wise Woman thought and thought, until finally she came upon an idea.
So the Wise Woman went to the tired, cranky boy who hated taking naps and said, “Why don’t you go into the bedroom and take it easy with your son for a while? You know, to help him settle down.”
And the boy took his baby son, went into the bedroom, laid his baby son on his chest and slept and slept.
The Wise Woman was very happy. And later, when the boy who hated taking naps had fallen FAST asleep, she took their baby son off of his chest, wrapped him up in her own arms, and told him the story of his daddy who hated taking naps. And they laughed and laughed.

What great pictures!!!
I would be glad to put Little Jai to sleep or just rest with him. I may need to take a nap today without an excuse, although I could get very cranky if that would help justify the nap!

Uh, Tony, watch for the chest-hair burn, buddy! Baby’s skins are sensitive. Maybe this would be a good time for the waxing you’ve been putting off. From personal experience I can tell you it is cathartic!

Okay, forward five months and that chest hair is so wrapped up in little baby fingers and being YANKED on! I totally dare you to try that move with your “grephew” Ollie. Just make sure I’m around to enjoy you feeling my pain! :)

Just a quick tip (that’s I’ll pass on to AL when I see her): provided the boy who hated taking naps (BWHTN) isn’t allergic to flowers, when nap times coming up brew up a little cup of chamomile tea. When the liquid cools a little, dip your finger in the tea and rub it on his gums.
Your kiddo will be out like a light. I learned that trick from the mother of twins, and it works like a charm on Sam too.
