This morning, you got up and got dressed with no discussion. You came back to my room dressed and ready to roll. At first you had a long sleeved sweater on. I asked you to change because it was going to be 80 degrees today. When Daddy was trying to leave for work, you didn’t want to let him go. You were trying to be on the porch and not coming back in the house. He got upset with you and you came back in crying. When we ate breakfast we danced & sang to Burning Love by Elvis and you were having fun again. You wrote “Mommy Daddy Giovanna” on your easel and you were telling me you couldn’t wait to show it to Daddy when he got home. In the car on the way to school Daddy called to tell you he was sorry that he got upset with you. It was so sweet and let us start over, which is great.
Ms. Sandy took you to Circus Park today after school. You were so excited because some friends from last week were there again. The girls came running up to Ms. Sandy all excited and said “hey you guys are here!!” It was so cute! Those girls are so sweet for being 8 & 10. They were so excited to see you guys at the park again and they remembered you sharing your snacks with them last time. So of course you asked again if they wanted snacks and this time they were prepared and brought their own. So cute how you love to share!! You always tell kids at the park “my Mom has the best snacks!”
At one point, Ms. Sandy saw you huddled up with the girls talking and when she went over to check on you, you pushed her away and told her that it was a private conversation for her not to worry about it. Really?!
When I got home from work, we cooked dinner together. After we ate, you were playing Story Cubes with Daddy and coloring on your easel. You asked Daddy to take you to bed but after an hour and a half, you were still not laying down. I’m not sure why you never want to go to sleep but it is definitely the only source of frustration around here!!!!
I love you so much!!
