Sleeping Beauty

The other day, I was sitting in the school pick-up lane, waiting for Charity. Usually she is right out there and we don't wait too long. Some days she is a little late because she is down at the office picking out another prize from the treasure basket. Well, this time it was neither, and after waiting for a little too long I looked over and saw Charity's friend Maya standing next to our car. I rolled down the window and she came over and quietly, politely said, "um.....Charity is......asleep....." At that moment I was just really confused and tried to pry some more information out of Maya as I got out of the car and started walking toward her classroom door. I'm thinking, "how did she fall asleep? am I supposed to wake her up? why doesn't the teacher wake her up? HAS SHE TRIED?" It was just really bizarre for a minute there, and then right as I got to her door she came moseying on out. Carrying her backpack in her hands all hunched over and just really slowly making her way out of the school. I could totally tell she had really been asleep! Later on I got the details. She had been reading under her desk, and just konked right out. Her friend's mom had been helping in the class that day and had whipped out her cell phone and caught this picture for me. I just think it's too funny to not share- this will definitely be in our blog book 2008. I can't look at it without laughing :) Poor little girl. I guess she was being a little bit of a pill that day as well, so she probably wasn't feeling well. (my perfect little Charity wouldn't just be naughty for no reason! HA! jk.)
