I’m really missing this girl right now. When I went to pick her up this afternoon she was crying because she wanted to go to church with Garan. Luckily, I bought her a cute dress and sandals at Target today. I fed and dressed her while Garan and Poppy got ready.
It was really fine because I stayed up much too late on Monday watching Jon & Kate fall apart and last night I was up late painting. I came home, finished up a design job, taught myself how to invoice using PayPal, cleaned up a bit and did some laundry.
Then she called me from the car. “Can I stay with Garan tonight? There are blue ‘jamas at Garan’s. I don’t want to come home.” How can I resist an otherwise quiet evening alone? Then I asked if she would miss me. She said, “No, and I don’t want to come home yet.” Ouch. When I told her that I’d really miss her and she was supposed to sleep with me tonight, she said, “It’s okay. I’ll be back. I’ll come see you in jus’ a minute.” Obviously, she has no sense of time.
