Today is a day of remembrance. It is a day to remember the parents who never got to hug their children. The husbands who never got to kiss their wives. The children whose lives were cut too short. The business men and women...the flight attendants...the cops...the firemen. The 23, the 37, the 343, the 2,977. It is a day to be quiet, to reflect, to honor. It is a day to show the victim's families that we have not, and will not, forget. I have talked about this day a few times before on the blog. I have talked about w here I was that day . I shared my feelings when they were going to build a mosque at Ground Zero . I recapped Skip's and my trip into the city to visit the memorial . I shared a letter from my dad's friend who died in the Towers . I've talked about the fear. But today all I can think about is the victims...the families left behind...and those that survived that horrific day....
OH MY GOODNESSS...this was me today!!!! I'm subscribing to the posts on this one because my 9 month old did the same thing today. We ended up driving in the van to get a nap. :(
ReplyDeleteI hope this is a phase for you. Be encouraged that you're a great mom, and that it won't last forever. Someday they'll be too old for naps.
We found that ultimately you have to leave the baby in there to scream it out for 15 minute increments until they realize that you aren't giving in. It is A LOT harder than it sounds... You can do it though, and I promise Little M won't be scared.
ReplyDeletewhere will she nap?
