Nap time resistant strategy
After learning about bugs this morning I decided to use it as a way to get Ashley upstairs for naptime. I asked her what bug she was going to be and how she was going to get upstairs. She decided on a caterpillar so she could slowly crawl up the stairs. Well smart mommy decided to be a bird and try to eat the caterpillar. After giggles of delight and making no progress toward the stairs the caterpillar was caught. Some how after that we did make it half way upstairs before my caterpillar decided it was her turn to be a bird, so like a good mom would do I got on my hands and knees and let the bird chase me the rest of the way to her room. Now this is where the student outsmarts the teacher. We get in her room the bird eats the caterpillar. The bird goes "Hmph" and walks out the bedroom door back down the hallway with a my job is done attitude leaving the caterpillar/mom wondering when did she get so smart? Of course I won, she's now in bed asleep after singing ladybug songs and tucking her in with only the butterfly blanket.
