At 5 years old, mama still has Mimi taking a nap at least 90-95 % of the time. Reason is because Mimi will wake up early (approx. 7:00 or earlier) and if she does not nap, she is a real super duper lunatic by nightfall.This was our conversation on the way home after gymnastic school and a trip to the Covington Nursery.
Mama: Mimi, when we get home I would like you to go upstairs and go lay down and take a nap for a while OK?
Mimi: But I don't want to. I'm not tired.
Mama: Yes I know but I would still like for you to lay down for a while.
Mimi: But I'm not sleepy.
Mama: You have a choice, either lie down on your bed or sit in your time our chair.
Mimi: I want to sit in YOUR TIME OUT CHAIR.
Looking at the picture, I rest my case. Mama always knows best.
