Sleep

Naptime has returned, so we're all thrilled and it makes for a much happier little guy!

I returned from the grocery store yesterday to find Zackary and Paul in Zackary's room.  Zackary had woke up from his nap and asked Paul for a flashlight because he was trying to find Jesus.  Here is the story.  Zackary has been waking up at night lately (and at 5:30A on both Saturday and Sunday) but we haven't been able to figure out why.  Over the weekend he finally said he was scared and heard noises.   I tried to reassure him and told him Jesus was always with him.  Well apparently in his mind this translated to Jesus talking to him during the night and waking him up!  And let me tell you when this boy gets something his mind it takes a lot to change it!  Finally before bed I suggested that during our prayers we ask Jesus to talk to him tomorrow so he could get some sleep, and this seemed to satisfy him.  He slept all night and there was no mention this morning of Jesus talking to him.  This will be added to the list of one of our more challenging parenting moments!!
