Let me sleep, please?

Kate asked for a nap today for the first time ever. Perhaps in response to her very busy last few days, or perhaps because she hasn't been sleeping well, around 10 a.m. this morning she signed "horsey" then "nap" then "horsey" again. What is one to do but let the kid sleep? So she slept. When she awoke she went off and played with her other auntie, and her uncle, and dinnered with her mom's extended family. She had her 6 hours of non-family time. Okay, maaaybe 24. Now she spends the next few days in a very different sort of whirlwind with my family. Let's see if this time on Monday she's begging for a nap again...
