Twink-a twink-a

Weekend nap time is always a bit of a crapshoot here at Chez Jones Effect.  Sometimes Miss E goes right down, no problem, and other days there is screaming, temper tantrums and standing in the crib flinging things.  One just never knows.

This morning we went for a stroller ride to walk Tucker, then she "helped" rearrange the deck furniture and then we went to the playground and grocery store.  Busy morning!  By the time naptime rolled around I figured it would be an easy one.  We read a story and I put her in her crib.

E:  "Mommy, I want my dress off."

Me:  "Ok, that's fine.  Lie down and I'll cover you with the blanket so you won't be cold."

E:  (lies down, gets tucked in) "Mommy, sing a song."

Me:  "Ok, what song?"

E:  "Twinkle twinkle!"

Me:  "Twinkle, twinkle little star..."

E:  "No, Mommy, I sing it!

Twink-a twink-a lidda stah....how I wonna...whatchoo are...up a ba ba worldsohiiii....twink-a twink-a...lidda stah...."

Me:  "Very good, kiddo.  Now it's time to go to sleep."

And she did.
