And this is what it takes...

Sometimes Samantha fights taking her nap even though she is clearly, CLEARLY ready for it. The red rimmed eyes, the whines, the appearance of the dark cloud over her head....you know those signs. What I've had to do twice now and Daddy once, is put her in the car seat and take her for a ride. On this particular day, I didn't even get out of our subdivision and she conked out. I took this picture when we got back home when I was starting to get her out of her carseat. She was a limp noodle, breathing heavy....down deep into her afternoon nap.
