Moms (and Dads) know what I'm talking about. That point in time when your child drops his nap. By not napping, he's horrifically cranky, whiny, and semi narcoleptic from mid afternoon until bedtime. But if he does nap, even if only for 45 minutes, he's suddenly awake partying until 11pm. Thus the in between stage. Awful.
Camden turns 4 in two weeks. He's terribly knee deep into the "in between stage." Combining that with his already impatient and testy personality, he's become an absolute treat in the afternoons.
The other day Cam had a post-whining-fit narcoleptic spell at dinner, mid bite into his cheeseburger. He at one point snapped awake and excused himself from the table, just to flop down on his brother's bedroom floor and sleep for an hour.
Instead of waking him up to avoid him sabotaging bedtime, or just letting him sleep peacefully, Daddy and I decided to take complete and total revenge on Camden's peaceful slumber.
That's what normal kind, caring parents do, right?
