We went to a glow-in-the dark miniature golf course. It was serious fun. We had lunch at the mall, bought a few school clothes, and I listened to Samantha ask me over and over again why she can't wear a padded bra. I guess my explanation of "you don't have any boobs", just didn't cut it.
You know, there are those few moments (usually late at night, when they are asleep) that I just look at these 3 faces and realize that I need these little people in my life. I need them just like I need air to breathe. They are the essence of who I am.
***Before typing this post, I dropped Addie off at a friends house to play. As soon as she stepped out of the car, all the tension just drained right out of my body. I think because I was so relaxed, I was able to really look at these pictures with loving eyes.
Addie just called me on the phone (she has been gone for a total of 18 minutes)-- "Ya, mom. So...like...I'm just really missing you and we are going to come and play at our house."
FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THINGS HOLY! Are you kidding me? I think this girl has some internal alarm that tells her that I am sitting quietly by myself. How dare she allow that to happen.
For the remainder of Sister Day, I going to rub my genie lamp and try to conjure up my sister to come and watch over my flock so that I can run to a place far, far away.

1. I think I want to hire you as a writer. Seriously. You sleigh me w/ every single one of your posts!
2. You need to keep a list of all the amazing things you do with your girls so when I'm 45 and having my first child i can just use your checklist and write them off as my own originality.
Love sister day. Maybe I should try sibling day. No Way!!! It's the end of summer and all the luvin' is gone. Maybe in the spring I'll feel like doing Sibling Day. A week and a half til school starts, Can't wait!
