To nap or not to nap

Today I stopped by to see my dad with my son after I dropped off my daughter.  I love being able to see my dad and him seeing his grandson.  But the drive there is so long it seems.  Most of the time when I see him, it's just a short visit because I have to be home in time to be able to pick up my daughter from school.  I fear I am going to be late picking her up and her teacher reports that against me.

My son seems to always fall asleep on the ride home.  The question that goes through my head is, should I let him nap or should I wake him up?  If I let him nap, he will be woken up once we get home and then he's going to be cranky because his nap was short and then in a hour or so we have to leave to pick up his sister.  And when we get home, he might not nap because he's not tired since he took a small nap earlier.  Then when she wakes up from her nap, he will be cranky and fall asleep which will make bed time a nightmare since he took a late nap.  If I wake him up, he is cranky because he's tired.  But nap time for the both of them will be easier because he's tired.  Ahh.. the struggle is real.

We are still feasting on leftovers.  I can't believe it.  Today I might heat up the last of the leftovers and tomorrow, since it is Friday, cook something really good.  I can't wait to start cooking casseroles again.
