4. Get Outside
I touched on playing in the great outdoors in #2, but feel like it deserves its own number. Sometimes we have days at my house when I just need to work (I’m a WFHM) and the TV is my best friend because my daughter will be entertained. But those are also days when sleeping doesn’t come easy. Why, because she’s a teeny tiny girl with more energy than me! She needs to run outside and get rid of it, otherwise she’s just going to roll around her bed during nap time trying to get it out then. Sometimes you have to give a little to get that nap, especially if you feel too tired to go play outside for an hour with them. In the end, it will pay off!
