24 Days....and counting!

This morning's breakfast conversation......
ACT I
The Stage: Penny, sitting on the living room floor, flipping through The American Girl Doll catalog for 750th time since its arrival. Mom, emptying dishwasher.
Penny: "Mom, I really need to have Mia's pajamas, because in case she is going to sleep with me and I decided if Santa can't find Mia because she is gone then I guess I'll just have Samantha."
Me: "Wow, Pen. You are sounding a little spoiled. Do you know what that word means? What if Santa decides to give you something else?"
Penny: "Mom, I'm sure he can handle it."
I'm sure glad one of us can.

Liza- so so so so so cute! Yours is officially my new favorite blog! I am picturing you telling these stories in your cute, funny way and I am laughing! It inspires me to post a cute, funny story of my own! I have one, but it may need to be edited. Maybe you'll see it on my blog someday! -Shari R

Liza Lou! Got your darling Christmas card with your blog address, and I'm ever-so-glad! It will be so fun to watch your kids grow in cyberspace - since I can't watch them grow in our neighborhood :(

Maybe I'll see you on a jog here and there! Love, Carolyn

What a persistent little Penny. Hopefully it all paid off and Santa got her what she wanted! You have to give in just a little!
