Grace got herself entirely confused today. She's been a bit off colour, and although we know she would benefit from a nap, we also know that it is unlikely on any given day. After an incident with some kokis and her clothes she ended up in her room for an extended period of time with the hope that she might just fall asleep. It was the last 10 minutes of her rest time and with Grace moaning and making a noise Donné had to go in to make the rules clear….very clear. 10 minutes passed, not a peep, 20 minutes, not a peep – she's sleeping!

After a long nap she was up and about and feeling much better – chirpy, full of life and enjoying playing. Supper came along and we decided to have egg and bacon, and then as bath time draws nearer Grace starts to moan that it is not night time. "It's not night time! We haven't done anything today! We just had breakfast!" She thought it was morning, and the nap plus choice of supper just threw her out of whack completely.

When I was running the bath she was standing behind me whacking me on the back saying, "We don't bath in the morning! It's not night time!" Donné stopped her, and carefully ran through the whole day, detailing each thing we had done, explaining how if it was the next day she would be going to school, and slowly she came around to the fact that it was still the same day. Poor baby, she really isn't used to an afternoon nap.
