The Sacred Time

Ah quiet lurks through my house after two little boys have left their mark for the day. Now they sleep. This is the sacred time of a stay at home mom. No matter how may errands need to be run, or place that need to be gotten to, or the other random things that linger on our to do list...Nap time is RARELY missed. We say that it is a must for the cranky toddler (and you know that this is true if the miss it that day) but truly it equally for the worn out mommy. Just when you are at the end of the rope, you look at the clock and oh nap time! If you are lucky they go down without a fight and you plop down on the couch with your five Oreo cookies and a glass of milk (at least that is what I prefer for the next month). Nap time, peaceful bliss between you, God, and whatever else you want.
