Wow, it has really been a while this time. I told myself I would keep up with this thing, maybe after this post. This is just too good not to write down right at this moment, I can’t forget this one. We had another “Late Night” discussion with Virginia Taylor…
It all started when Virginia climbed in our bed (Caroline had just gone back to sleep, in our bed of course) and started violently rolling everywhere, moving Chuck near about completely off the bed. We were all up at this point, WIDE AWAKE. Then Virginia sat up and very sweetly asked “Daddy, is Christmastime over?” Chuck answered, “Yes Virginia, we have to wait”. She then said “Then we will have a Christmas tree, a party and presents?” “Yes that’s right, we will when it’s Christmastime”, Chuck said. There was a long pause until she said “Well I think I need Santa to come now, I need to speak with him”. As tired and as frustrated as I was, I was laughing hysterically inside and could not help but be so thankful for my sweet girl who has quit the personality.
We have ended up down stairs watching “Little Bill”, one of her favorite shows. (“Little Bill” is another hilarious story in our house, if you’re interested in hearing it, email or message me.) As we’re sitting here on the couch about an hour after her questions she starts up again… “Mommy, why do Mimi have Santa at her house too? She had a party for me too”. I explained that Santa came to Mimi’s house too because I used to live there when I was a little girl and that’s where he came to see me. She could have have cared less and then said “Maybe Santa will bring me a watch, maybe a Goofy watch, or Pete watch. I like Goofy. But I not like Pete, he scary”
So after two hours and multiple attempts at trying to get these two little girls back to sleep, here we all three sit. I guess it’s a good thing we don’t have to be anywhere early tomorrow, ohh wait, Caroline will be up at 5:30. Ahhh, Ohhh me, sleep will come to me one day again but until then I'll take the entertainment.
