She's been wearing this over her clothes for the past week. Rich is convinced that this is strange - "She can't go to the grocery store dressed like that!" My response: "When else in your life can you go to the grocery store in your mom's old dance costume??" The joys of being little!
I am so blessed to have family watching Annessa while I am at school. My mom and my aunt give her experiences that are uniquely special. Experiences that would never even cross my mind. Case In Point: The "Fider."
I came home from work the other day (to my favorite part of the whole entire day - the part where Annessa screams, "Mama! Mama!" Then she always asks - and this is so adorable- "Mama, how was school?") to find find Ness and Linda in the bathroom. Since we are potty training, I thought nothing of it.
"Mama," Ness says as she points to the ceiling. "Look - there's a fider!"
"Oh no - I'll get it!" I said reaching for a tissue.
"Mama - NOOOOO! That's my fider. Her name is Charlotte." Annessa explained with a very serious look on her face.
See what I mean about unique experiences? Now I've had a "fider" living in my bathroom for the last week....
