Best Part of the Day-
Three cheers for productivity and one shout out for a girl gettin all growed up--
I cleaned out my closet (man, is it clean!) and packed up 6 trash bags full of craziness for GoodWill.  I had a wonderfully productive day at work when it is usually very choppy and difficult to complete a task.  I also went to work-out!  Can it be?
As far as my growing girlie--whoa.  Scarlet is quite excited to turn 4 and 1/2 on April 1 (remember those good ol days?).  She keeps talking in terms of "when I'm 4 1/2 I will be able to..."   Will-O and I are opportunists and are therefore taking advantage of this notion and encouraging "When you are 4 1/2 you will keep your bed dry at night, no whining, finish your chores, etc."
At dinner this evening she was exquisitely mannered--"May I be excused?" and the whole nine.  When she and Liam were done eating but Will-O and I were not yet done, she maturely stated "Don't worry you two--I'll tend to Liam while you two finish eating in peace."  God love it.  After her bath tonight I told her how much I noticed and appreciate her fantastic behavior.  She said plainly "It's because bad manners are for babies...not someone ALMOST 4 1/2".  Keep it comin!

Worst Part of the Day-
My body weight has been pretty much unwavering since I was 17.  It's the changing shape that is disconcerting...not so much in this area--why do we have that THERE?  
Alas.  Does this mean I have to stop shopping at Forever 21?  

Neither Here Nor There-
(Since I was mildly obsessed with getting the movie and seeing it for the last 1.5 days...) I popped in Hard Candy the instant the kids went down.  I say good/weird--thumbs up.
