Be nice to me, Mommy!

Wow...what a day and night! I had a busy day at work -- so much to do before I quit. My evening was just as busy. I went to get Babyluv from the sitter at 4:30 and then we went home, fed the dogs, changed clothes, and then we relaxed for about 15 minutes. Then at 5:30, Babyluv and I left the house. While in route to grab dinner for Babyluv and Grandma (the babysitter for the evening), I noticed that Babyluv was scratching a scab on her forehead. I told her to leave her forehead alone. She loves to pick at her scabs -- which makes them take much longer to heal. Then, she started to scratch the scab on her face. I said, "Baby, don't scratch your face -- your "ouch" will not get better if you keep scratching it." Then, she decided to take off her shoes. I asked her "Honey, why did you take off your shoes? We are going to Grandma's house." I guess she was frustrated with my nagging because she sternly said, "No be mean! Be nice to me, Mommy!" Wow...can you believe that? She is so funny! Well, I dropped her off at Grandma's house and off I went to meet Daddyluv at Chili's . He and I met some of my clients for dinner at 6:00 p.m. So, we only got to spend about 3 hours today with our sweet Babyluv -- so sad!!! I don't have to work tomorrow so we will spend lots of time together.


I love the Christmas season -- however this year, I will not be mailing Christmas cards. I feel so bad because we have received about 15 already from friends and family and they will not be receiving one from us. I was not able to find a picture of Babyluv that I wanted to use for our card this year. We even went to the Galleria to try to take some cute pictures but she was not in a "picture taking mood" and we could not get her to smile or even look happy for that matter. We did not take any family pictures this year that are Christmas card worthy. So, this year I guess you can call me a "grinch." I went to the store in search of cute Christmas cards and none appealed to me. I promise -- I am a nice person and I do have at least half a heart. Just know that I am thinking of you all and praying that you have a wonderful Holiday Season with many wonderful blessings!!!!!
