Our Abram has been different than all the rest of our children, they all would take naps during the day and then sleep fine at night, going to bed around 8:30 or 9:00 pm. Not Abe, he for the longest time would not fall asleep during nap time and then I would have wasted a rather long time trying to get him to sleep and I would feel crummy because I dozed off and he did not. So I stopped trying to make him nap during the day, it helps to wear him out more and now he sleeps much better at night... I hate it, I know he needs a nap, but I don't know any other way around it.
Well, we had been outside for a great deal of the day yesterday, gardening and cleaning and digging and such and after supper when I was cleaning up he wanted to color. Look at what I found after he was coloring for a minute or so... Sound asleep, crayon in hand, still leaned over the table, and still grubby as everything from playing in the dirt... So sweet I had to take a picture.
Have a great day everyone!

I took one look at the picture of your little angel and it reminded me of a picture of my grandson Liam taken at about that age. He is fast asleep on the floor lying on his arm. He'd been playing with his toys and obviously feel asleep while doing so. Aren't they so sweet at that age. Photos are such great memory reminders.

That is such a sweet picture! My youngest is the same way, she has to be completely wore out before she'll go to sleep and then she fights it to the very last second. So different from my oldest who napped on the dot everyday.

So cute! I have memories - and a picture, I think - of my daughter doing this so many years ago :)

Precious!!
So sweet! I just recently captured a similar picture of my daughter...She doesn't nap either (never really has!), but has always been a great night-time sleeper. Sometimes all that busy-ness just catches up with them! :)
