it actually makes me angry....

I have tried for two hours to get Mikelle back to sleep. you see she fell asleep in the car on the way to take lily to school and I have to sign lily in and out. so I had to wake kelle up and take all three of my kids in. Even though she was only sleeping for 5 minutes she wont go back to sleep. not if I rock her, sing to her, read to her, let her cry it out. NOTHING. after two hours of trying I think it is safe to say she is NOT going back to sleep. but here is the catch. I have to leave in 20 minutes to go get lily, and mikelle will probobly fall asleep in the car on the way there because she has worn herself out after two hours of fighting off falling asleep. Two reasons I want her to take a nap are #1 that is the only way i can get some time to clean my house, eat lunch, read my scriptures, not be touched and screamed at constantly. #2 if she does not have a nap, or has a five minute nap she is a crying naughty mess ALL day. and needs to go to sleep right at the time I need to be making dinner, and I can't let her go to sleep that early or she will be up at 4am the next day. or sleep for two hours and wake up thinking she had a nap and is ready to not sleep for 6 more hours, that is not an option at 8pm. the type and amount of frustration this creates in me quickly turns to anger. and to that anger I have NO out let!
