Birthday Card

I just wanted to share this funny story... 

I celebrated my birthday last week and the week was pretty hectic (see We Have News Below). Danny was on the phone a lot, had double days, we took a few trips, etc.. The day before my birthday Paige asked what we are doing 'tomorrow'. I said that it was my birthday and I was going to a spa and that Daddy was going to be Mommy for a day. She almost started crying when she found out that Daddy hadn't let her make a card for me (Danny was going to be gone all evening). So, she tells me to go to my room and instructs Blake to follow her. They need to make me a card. 

I close the door and am still listening to what is going on. Everything is going fine until Blake colors on her paper. She comes running in crying, says she is not happy with him, I should make him go in a time-out, etc. I asked if she got him paper to color on and she said NO. I said well, he just wanted to color too. Then, in comes Blakes with a big smile and says I colored on Paige's paper. He knew what he was doing, the little turkey. In the end it worked out. 

And, if any of you have been fortunate enough to receive a darling picture from my daughter, her people are the best I have ever seen. Let me just try and describe them - round head at the top of the page, stick legs that go all the way to the ground. No arms and a head full of hair - either really spiky or curly all the way down to the bottom. There are also big eyes and a mouth too!! My Little artist!
