Zombies

I have said it before, I will say it again. When Bella gets a nap, it is a bad thing for us... On no-nap days, she is down by 8 usually, and up at 7, which is a good 11 hours of sleep, and she's in a great mood.

But if she falls asleep, even for an hour... she's up til 11. She's still upstairs, glassy eyed, half asleep, and yelling about wanting lights on and reading more books... She just can't turn off!

And tomorrow, she will still be up at 7. That is not changeable for some unknowable reason. She could be in a windowless, soundproofed room, in a spaceship traveling at near relativistic speeds, and still at 7am Central Standard Time, she'll be up.

Which means we will have zombie child tomorrow, as we desperately try to avoid giving her the nap she will so much need, to break the cycle of insanity.

Poor thing!
