I live for nap time

I have no idea how long I have to make this post. I must type quickly. There will also be no time to proof read, not that I do it very well anyways. I am home for a few days with the pleasure of keeping my son while my wife takes care of some other business. This is day 1 of 3. We had a great morning but I have to tell you that there really isn't anything more glorious than a 1 year old laying down for a nap!

I was talking with a friend at our congregation yesterday, and he mentioned how precious nap time was to him and his wife. In fact, he's the one that gave me the title of this post.

Honestly, I'm just not sure what to do with this time. Should I take a nap? I always like a good nap. Obviously I am blogging, checking email, catching up on the world, but what should I do after this? I have projects, could help with laundry, read, watch television...watching television...no I hate Soaps - I could go on and on. I'm afraid by the time I decide what to do, nap time will be over and an opportunity lost!

I know...just do something...time is short. I'm off but bless you if you are a stay-at-home mom.

so, can you give me a synopsis of what was on Oprah yesterday?

No bon-bons and certainly no new earth Oprah. Day two is going by much faster. Barnes and Nobles had a Thomas Train table set up so I was able to read some while the little one played.
