Practical Mom's Dictionary Installment #10

Dilemma: It is quite cold out today, and I was planning to drive up and meet my boys so they wouldn’t have to walk home in the cold. My 3-year-old who has virtually given up naps but who is habitually in a cranky mood in the evening because of the lack of nap just fell asleep in my lap, and it is just about time to leave to meet the boys. So, do I let them walk home in the cold in the hopes we can keep the princess from being crabby today, or do I risk the wrath of the cranky 3-yr-old, which has been exhausting lately, and wake her right now? What to do, what to do?

Ha, ha! I woke her up and we drove to get the boys. She was a little cranky, but not too bad. Overall a good day yesterday.

Glad to hear it! Our three-year-old is a cranky-waker-upper too =).
