9/5/22 – Nis To Me You!

This morning, you woke up at 7:15a despite going to bed so late. You threw your arms around mine in bed and squealed “Legoland”!!!!!!! You were looking so forward to going! You know Ms. Jennie from my office, but you and her daughter Eva, hadn’t met yet. We all laugh around the office because the two of you are so similar. Jennie calls her Eva Diva. You were so excited to meet her that you even wrote on her birthday card “Nis to Me You!” We arrived before the gates opened and when Eva saw us walking up to the gate, she opened her arms & ran up to you to give you a huge hug like you were long lost best friends! You all had fun, played & rode all day becoming fast friends. I texted Becky early in the day to let her know the park wasn’t busy despite it being Labor Day in case they were going to come. Around 12:30p she replied and said they were headed over! We met up with them around 2:30p & you were so surprised to see Bianca. I didn’t tell you they were coming. The three of you were so cute together. Bianca folded in like you guys were the three amigas! When you walked you were all arm in arm and my heart was melting. You haven’t always had an easy time having more than one friend at a time to play with, but today you were a champ! You were also exceptionally great and allowing Eva to choose what to ride next since it was her birthday, even if it wasn’t what you really wanted to do next. All 3 of you are strong personality only children but there wasn’t one moment of bickering. It was awesome and we will definitely do it again! Eva had to leave around 4:30p so you got to ride some rides with Bianca before we had to get going. I had promised you could play a game before we left and although we were at the front of the park at the Lego Movie ride, you wanted to play the balloon breaking game back by the car ride. I didn’t want to go all the way back there, but a promise is a promise. Becky agreed to go to Ruby Tuesday and get a table for us while we went to play your game. A very nice lady working gave you and extra balloon to break and them gave you a prize one size up from what you actually won. You were over the moon with excitement. You couldn’t wait to show Becky & Bianca when we got to the restaurant. I don’t know how but you didn’t sleep a wink on the way home. You wanted to call Daddy on the way home because you got all upset that Little Medical School is starting tomorrow after school and you didn’t want to leave me for a whole hour. You were crying so hard and Daddy helped to calm you down. After we spoke to him you asked to call Ms. Sandy. You said “not that Daddy helped me calm down I can talk to her.” I know the big reaction was because you were so tired, but you had been upset about leaving me since I told you the program was an option. We finally got home around 9:15p which is way later than I wanted to, but so much fun was had, I couldn’t cut you guys off early! You were just about asleep as we were hitting UTC but when we got home, you tried to catch a second wind. You asked Grandma Noot to put you to bed, but then asked her to get me because you wanted to snuggle. We had a perfect long weekend. I loved every minute of it!

I love you so much!
