Ever since Annelise and I had our girls day out last weekend, she has just been so sweet. She is sweet-natured, anyway, but lately we had been seeing some 'tude coming out with some sassy mouth and some rolling of the eyes and such. She may be 6 and a half, but she thinks she is a teenager- or so she tells me all the time. So when I saw a paper in her folder from school with "Mommy" written on it yesterday, I took it out and this is what I read: "Poime by Annelise To Mommy. You are as sweet as a Plum and I Love To spend Time with you. And with you I am happy. Love AfK " I thought that was so darn sweet and I even teared up a little, which is rare for me. She spelled everything all by herself and drew little different colored hearts all over the paper. Apparantly, it is what she chose to do when she had a few free minutes in class. I think those few hours we spent together last Saturday really just meant the world to her. I am so excited about maybe doing it again sometime, soon. I truly was surprised at how much I enjoyed our girls day. She is growing up way too fast.......

Spend as much time together as possible...it won't be long before our kids don't want to be seen with us:(
I hope that never happens:)
I think that is so beautiful and I am a big believer in spending that special time with each one. It really matters to them!
Have you seen the Spooky Castle Gingerbread houses at Walmart for about 9 bucks? Thats Alex and my next event together. We make a gingerbread house, fill it with candy and then give it to someone.
It really makes a difference in his attitude!
Keep up the great work!!
