Happy 4th Birthday Dre'a!!!!!

Today my “baby” Dréa turns 4.  She definitely keeps me on my toes.  She is very strong willed and knows what she wants.  I love that about her but man is it hard sometimes.  For her birthday breakfast she wanted to go to IHOP.  She really would go anywhere that served hot chocolate with lots of whipping cream.  She doesn’t even drink the hot chocolate.  She was looking forward to taking the cookies she picked out to her class today.  She wanted everyone to know it was her birthday (I wonder where she gets that from….hhmmm?)  She gets to have a birthday party on Saturday and she can hardly wait.  She might be a little disappointed though because she is expecting Troy Bolton aka Zach Efron to be there.  They are getting married by the way.  She has never really had a birthday party with friends.  All of her parties have been with family so this is a big deal.  On her birthday list she requested a chicken.  I have asked everyone NOT to get her one.  What am I going to do with a chicken?  Her other big wish is for make-up.  The weird thing is that the make-up always seems to disappear!!!!!!  I just don’t understand why.  Dréa is so fun and sweet.  Her personality is one I hope she keeps forever.  I love her so much and I hope she has a wonderful day.  

Happy St. Patrick's Day

 This morning when the girls woke up I surprised then with new shirts for St. Patrick’s Day.  They were both so excited.  As they were getting dressed Jais asked where her green pants were.  I told her that she wouldn’t get pinched because her shirt was green.  OH NO!!!!!  That was not going to be OK.  If she doesn’t have green pants on then the Leprechauns can pinch her on her legs.  After a very long “discussion” that wearing a green shirt is good enough she finally decided it was OK to go to school.  Who knew St. Patrick’s Day was such a hard day to dress for?  One more thought, I feel bad for the person who actually tries to pinch Dre'a.  They are taking their lives into their own hands.  After that it is every man for himself!!!!
