She is Asleep in the DAYTIME!!!

Most everyone who knows Margaret knows that she is NOT a napper. Even when she was an infant she was not a fan of naps. I honestely do not remember the last time she slept during the daytime other than when she was really sick! I actually gave up even trying for a nap right after Margaret turned 3. She goes to bed around 7:30 or 8 and is a good sleeper so I decided to not even fight for the nap. However, today she had some incentive and she went down for a nap like a champ----is this my child?
Lauren, my first baby girl, who I babysat for since she was born has her Jr/Sr Prom tonight. She invited us over to see her in her pretty "hot pink" dress and to take pictures. Margaret is so excited that she can barely stand it. She likens Lauren's prom to a princess ball, since all the girls will be dressed up and dancing with handsome boys. She has asked if Lauren will be wearing diamonds in her hair and if she will dance prettiest of all! So, we have been talking about her taking a nap all week in order to stay up late and see Lauren. This afternoon we went to lunch and the park with Marg's little friend and came home and she actually fell asleep by herself! I am still in shock! Most moms of almost 4 year olds will surely find this post silly, but My Girl is not the best at going to sleep......much less sleeping in the daytime! I am a proud mommy today! She has been sleeping for MORE than an hour now......WOW!
