CHAPTER 45 - BIG GIRL 2

Daddy and uncle Grey come up to Ana's room while we are both playing and painting.

"Hey baby girl, nap time for you." Uncle Grey picks Ana up and she pouts. "Daddyyyyy want to play moreeeee. "

"Uh huh. Be a good girl. We can go to the park after you wake up, okay?"

I take her silence as her assent.

"I will play more! Not sleeping yet!" Carol grins.

"Daddy! Carol is not sleeping! I won't sleep!!" Ana starts off and for a moment I am scared that daddy will put me to bed too, but he doesn't.

He takes Ana from Uncle Grey's arms. "Ana, you are my baby, yes? Carol is not. She is a big girl. She can decide for herself when she wants to sleep and wake up."

Ana still throws a tantrum. Daddy spanks her twice, hard. Uncle Grey and I flinch but remain quiet otherwise. She starts crying.

Daddy bounces her on his arms and rubs her back. She falls asleep in his arms instantly.
