Sisters

Madison had a wonderful time at her first slumber party. McKenzie rode with me to drop her off at the roller rink. We stayed long enough to make sure Maddie was ready to skate and then prepared to come home. And the tears began. So I will let you guess who was crying at the point of leaving Madison at her first slumber party:

A) Madison
B) Mommy
C) McKenzie

Ding Ding Ding - If you guessed McKenzie, you are right!

My sweet baby cried her eyes out, "I want Maaaaddddiiieeee." I sat in the back of the van and just let her cry. We cruised by Ellah's house for a quick dose of the bff to calm her nerves. The rest of the night went well until it was time for bed and the tears were pouring out of her eyes. McKenzie was breaking my heart! And she really got me when she fell asleep with a picture of the two of them in her arms. God bless these girls.

I picked Madison up Sunday morning about 9. She had a wonderful time and had a million stories to tell. I was so proud of her for making it all night away from home. The minute we walked in the front door, McKenzie had her in the death grip hug like she was returning from war rather than a slumber party. God bless these girls.

Later in the day, Madison asked me if they could have a picnic in the backyard. This is a new favorite activity since the playscape from Santa arrived. She was so cute bringing me the little basket we use for picnics. I made 3 sandwiches, cut up 2 apples, and threw in some chips. Off they went - the 3 amigas. I didn't hear any yelling or screaming or fighting. Only giggles. Here they are at the picnic. God bless these girls.
