Does anyone remember trying to get that excited soon to be kindergartener off to sleep the night before the start of school? That alone but this one has Tigger built right in and is she ever bouncy!!! She is excited, I am for her as well. However, as we lay listening to classical music and watch the color graphics on hubby's mac she seems least interested in sleep. can't get her to stop moving!!!! And then I had a call from a teacher who had my son his first two years in school and I think I may be a bit too old for this endeavor? No, then I know grandparents who are doing it so there before the grace of god go I. She is such a city girl though. I told her she could bring her mud boots to school and she very firmly informed me that children wear sneakers to school. Well, around here mud boots are a necessity. Specially cause it's raining! She brought home a VERY HUNGRY CATERPILLAR. Soon to be a Monarch. My spouse is so good with her and kids. He walked in the rain with her as she was full of energy and they found the caterpillar and we read the book everyday. She will bring it to school in the morning.

She can be so trying as well. What does one do with an alomost 6 year old who thinks it's funny to peek under your nightie? I correct her and she giggles. I swear I am going to start wearing full tops and bottoms to bed!!!

She woke us at 2:00 a.m. this am and would not go back to sleep. She has her own things happening. She is truly a gift.

Now changing the subject a bit, my daughter's birth sister wanted sitting for the 18 month old and then she called hubby asking for a computer. I wonder if I could get the baby in trade? I worry so about her. I just want for her to grow up free of harm and shame. I want her to have a childhood.

Well, mine is out so I guess My day is finally done.
