Filed under: Toddlers Preschoolers, Preschoolers, Big Kids, Day Care & Education
Normally, people like Fridays. For those with a Monday-to-Friday work week, it signals the end of the time period where we've sold our days to our employer, freeing us for more pleasurable pursuits.

The same was true for Sara, who really digs her knew caregiver and her two daughters. I think a week full of busy play combined with five consecutive days without a nap got to them both. I suspect they'll be sleeping in a bit tomorrow, which is always a good thing on a Saturday morning.

Thousands Protest in Iraq
Tens of thousands of protesters from Iraq's Sunni Muslim minority poured onto the streets after Friday (December 28) prayers in a show of force against Shi'ite Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki, keeping up a week-old blockade of a highway. Around 60,000 people blocked the main road through the city of Falluja, 50 km (32 miles) west of the capital, setting fire to the Iranian flag and shouting "out, out Iran!
