Best Parts of the Day-
1. Had an hour to myself midday--cleaning and readying for the kiddies to come back.

2. Scarlet was exceptional this eve cranking through her 1.5 hours of homework. Man, when this child focuses she is money. She was the most coachable I've seen her and I let her stay up "late" (til 8:30pm--crazy Friday!!) and we played school. I was the teacher and she was my prized student; we went through the upper and lower case letters on the chalk board in her room. She was wizzing through her spelling words and writing complete sentences with crazy good penmenship--amazing! I had to force her to stop doing school work--I think I remember those days. So fun.

Worst Part of the Day-
I somehow missed my alarm this morning and low and behold Miss S. missed the bus. It was no huge deal, but I had to pack up the kiddies and cruise downtown to drop off my sweet so she would not be tardy (to avoid her missing The No Tardy Party! the school does quarterly.) A bit rushed in the morn for my taste.

Funny Scarlet Quote:
Today Scarlet said, "Mom, you look like you're 9 years-old. Let's pretend that you're not my mom, but my 9 year-old friend. Let's tell everyone!" Oh my sweet. Do 9 year-olds have this many wrinkles???
