adapting

Dylan,

You cried yourself to sleep this afternoon.

The day's schedule and your very short mid-day nap colluded to leave you over-tired. Mom took you home to feed you and give you another nap but you just didn't want to be put down. Eventually, she did the right thing and left you in your crib to find your own way. After 20 or 30 more minutes of spirited crying, you slept.

It would be nice if we had the time and ability to map all our days around your natural sleep/eat/wake rythms. Since we don't, you're learning to adapt.

Dad
