Monday 10th December 2012 – 'Exhaustion' (345/366)

This is the second time in a few weeks that he has fallen asleep in the car and we've had to carry him in to sleep in our arms. The Boy still naps during the day, much to many parents 'disgust' or disbelief, and I find myself having to justify my decision to them, it makes me cross. Occasionally on weekend, if we're busy, we don't allow him to nap so that we can carry on enjoying our family time together. On Monday when I was out with mum we did that, having also done it on Saturday. He was completely exhausted and fell asleep within minutes in the car on the journey home. Today he is very poorly because of over-tiredness.

This is why my son still naps during the day.
