Abigail's Temper Tantrum

Abigail's new thing is to throw herself on the ground and kick and scream when she gets mad over something. All of my children have done this, and I have learned just to let them do it. I am amazed at the looks other people give me when they see me not doing anything to help her while she is on the floor crying, I wonder, do other kids not do this?
Last Sunday Abigail didn't get a good nap because she fell asleep on the way home from church and did not stay asleep. Some kids function OK without a nap, but Abigail is not one of those kids. She got upset about something and did her normal temper tantrum on the floor. She cried for longer than normal, but then quickly stopped. When Jeff went in to pick her up this is what he found.


The funniest part is when I picked her up to put her in her crib, she woke up and picked up on the crying right where she had stopped.
