phone call with grandma

• There was no school today. Katie, you took the Red Cross babysitting course. Jane, you spent the day over at Donny’s. George and Lila, we spent the day driving the big girls around, napping, and chilling out at home.

• Lila, you found a box of cards and decided to write a couple letters to put in the mail. The letters are exceptionally sweet. You’re such an interesting girl. You definitely have people in an “inner circle” with whom you’re fiercely loving and loyal. And then the others…well…you could take them or leave them. You wanted to call grandma Laura to let her know there was an envelope on it’s way. You looked so sweet as you talked to her.

• George, you were pretty grouchy this morning. Actually, when you’re tired, you’re a combination of super hyper and very emotional. I gave you an early lunch, then put you down for a nap around 10:45. You were adamant that you weren’t tired, and let me know in your loudest voice, but then laid down and fell asleep immediately and slept for three hours. It was a good thing…for everyone involved.

• This evening Danielle and Kim (from camera club) came over to set up for our Christmas party tomorrow. It’s a dorky photo-geek Christmas party, but it’s going to be so FUN!!!! Can’t wait to see everyone tomorrow.
