A grumpy wakeup


This is my child when she wakes up from a nap.

Maryam is not a morning person. She takes after mommy in this regard. After she's woken up from a nap, it can take her a good 30 minutes to be her normal cheery self. And she normally is a very smiley, cheerful babe. But not when she wakes up. I've met some kids who wake up smiling and happy after a restful sleep. Maryam wakes up grumpy, dazed, confused, and somewhat clingy. Now at least I can tell Jim it's genetic when I ask him not to talk to me, look at me, or touch me for the first 30 minutes of my day.

These pictures are hilarious, Jenise! Maryam is such a cutie. It was nice to see you again on Saturday at the Gentle Parenting meeting.
