Larissa


I am concerned about Larissa.  She seems tired all the time.  We put her to bed around 7-7:30ish and on school days I wake her last, around 6:30.  Yet, she is always tired.  A tired Larissa is an irritable Larissa.

The above picture was taken at quiet time over the weekend.  After lunch we have quiet time (or mom sanity time) where the kids can play their DS's, color, read or nap.  They each have different rooms to do this in.  Larissa put her DS down on the steps and took a nap in the corner (no, this is not her "spot", she has this entire room as hers during quiet time).

Yesterday she got up and then sat on her dad's lap to watch cartoons and she quickly fell asleep.  Today her teacher told me that during recess today she went to the bench and promptly took a nap.

I am not sure what is going on. I wonder of she is having more seizures then normal.  It is so hard for us to tell because everyone is sleeping.  Nocturnal seizures are so hard to manage because of their very nature....occurring during sleep.

Eventually we hope to have Lily upstairs again.  However, I do worry about her messing with Larissa's sleep.  Right now Larissa's sleepiness can not be blamed on the girls.

This is yet another mystery in our house and a worry for mom.
