Toddler Tales: Long Day

Joshua had a hard time going down for a nap yesterday. He came stomping down the stairs, then broke down into tears when he saw me come to carry him back up.

I got him in bed and calmed down. He looked at me with tear-wet eyes and said:

"It's a long day."

"It has been a long day, baby. Now get some sleep."

I don't usually get photos of Joshua sleeping because his room is dark and the flash wakes him up. A few days ago I was able to take this one because he came down after an hour in bed to sleep another hour on the couch. It must have been yet another long day for the poor little guy.
