Is a couple of hours of quiet, pretending that Maisy is asleep, worth having to change the sheets, clean up the torn up coloring books, and give Maisy a bath? I haven't decided yet. A child with special needs offers so much good, but with that comes a lot of work. "Unto whom much is given, much is required."Tuesday, August 12, 2008
Messy, messy
This is what Maisy does when I put her down for a nap. Yes, her shirt is wet, she took off her diaper. Her sheets and blanket were wet as well. Am I dreaming to think that an almost four-year-old should still take naps. There are extenuating circumstances, Maisy is not an average three-year-old. Sometimes watching the effort she has to exert just to get around makes me tired.

her bum is sure cute! i think having a blog has accounted for many a children happier- their mother's run to get the camera instead of getting angry.
love you
That's a cute bum!
Way to "like unto us". I don't know...the quiet and pretend is priceless at times. If I ever sneak off for a nap while my youngest is actually asleep I have to expect major clean up of what my oldest did to keep busy.
Love Maisys busy picture! So glad for her curiosity, energy, and happy smiles. Love, Grandma Christensen
