"Mommy, bwankie" kas whines as we eat out with my parents

"Here you go baby!" I smile

Kas takes a seat next to me, resting her head on the table as she holds up her blanket to her face, and puckers her lips

"Hey sweetie don't fall asleep" I say gently removing her blanket from her hand

She's tired, and jet lagged, but I can't let her fall asleep because it's too early and then she wont sleep through the night

"Uh, bwankie" she whines

"Do you want to go to the park, that'll be fun!" I say trying to sound excited but I'm exhausted too

"Nooo, tiwed" she yawns

"I know you are pumpkin, but we can't go to sleep yet, it's not nighttime yet"

"I go night night" she weeps

"I know baby" I say taking her in my arms to comfort her as I rub her back "I know you do but it's not night time yet"

"Nap time?" She pouts

"No it's not nap time either, we have to wait a few more hours so we can go sleep okay"

"No, sleepies now" she whimpers

"Kas! Do you want ice cream baby?" I exclaim

"Nooo, no i cweam, night night" she cries, shaking her head

"Let her take a nap" mom suggests

"I can't" I sigh "if I let her nap, she's going to wake up even more cranky from not sleeping well, I have to try to keep her awake at least for three more hours, I wont make her stay up until bedtime just a few more hours so tomorrows not so hard on her"

"Todays already hard on her tay"

"I know, but if I let her go to sleep now, she'll never get used to the time difference and she'll have a hard day every day"

"Baby, let's go the store and I'll let you pick up as many toys as you'd like okay?" I say to Kas who's almost falling asleep in my arms, I love to spoil my child, but I also don't want her to become a spoiled rotten brat, but I know that she usually only picks out one or two toys and Is ready to leave

"Pwincess toys?" She asks rubbing her eyes

"Yeah we can get so many princess toys and princess dresses, do you want to go?"

"Night night?"

We can go night night after we go shopping okay? I'm going to hold on to blankie

I make her walk to the store so she won't fall asleep on the way there, it's not a long walk and I need her to stay active so she won't fall asleep

"Alright pumpkin, which one do you want?" I ask her as we look at the dolls

"Huh, what do you want?"

"Sleepies"

"Oh you want to go sleepies?" I pout Hugging her "well go to sleep soon baby, i promise"

"Uppy" she pouts, wanting to be picked up

"No baby, you have to walk" if I carry her, she'll fall asleep in my arms "come on, let's pick out some toys"

"Look how pretty Cinderella looks baby"

She groans, stoping her little feet

"Oh are you mad be mommy won't let you go sleep?"

"SLEEPIES!" She demands

"You can't baby, it's too close to bedtime and then you'll be sleepy tomorrow too"

"Sleepies" she cries tiredly, rubbing her eyes, I might have to give in

"Do you want candies pumpkin? We can get candies!"

"No" she sobs "bwankie!"

"Don't you want a toy?" I ask, looking at the toys to see which one she'd like so I can show her, but when I look back, she laying on the floor, still hiccuping from the cries and in fetal position, that's how she usually sleeps

"Oh pumpkin, the floors dirty" I sigh, picking her up as she continues to cry and she buries herself in my neck

"Bwankie" she whimpers

"Alright, let's get you blankie so you can sleep in mommy's arms while we go to the hotel baby"
