Special Day with Evelyn

I stayed home with Evelyn today, since she is recovering from strep
throat. We had such a fun morning just the two of us. We did
puzzles, played with cars, named ALL the plastic animals in her many
plastic animal sets, read books, danced, and sang songs. She even
helped me clean the bathrooms. We had a ball. At one point during
the morning, she said, "Mommy play ME!" as though she was so shocked
and excited to have me all to herself (an admittedly rare thing). I
loved having one on one time with her. It was a really special day.

Then, when we picked up Mary Grace and Willa from school, Mary Grace
asked Evelyn what she did today. Evelyn looked at her and said, "I
made biscuits at school!"

Oh well.
