heaven

Two days straight of blissful, three children napping, happy mommy quiet time.  Heavenly. Today I sit at nap time and ironically read this (while eating chocolate):

My new strategy is this: we read stories and sing songs in M and M's room.  Then, I tuck Molly into her bed, and take Max to lay down on my bed.  Ian is napping in his crib in his little corner of Olivia's room.  Here a child there a child everywhere a child, child.  No monkeys jumping on beds, no mommy with frazzled nerves.  Two days in a row.  How many days makes a habit?

"There never was a child so lovely but his mother was glad to get him to sleep" 

Ralph Waldo Emerson
