Evidence #1: I went into the girls room to get Abby up for school and this is what I found. Cailah had a bad dream and got in bed to snuggle with Abby and tell her all about it. They DO like each other.
Evidence #2: I walked into the living room and found Abby reading a book to Delayna. Of course right now she's more interested in eating the pieces, but they were both enjoying it and what better thing is there to do but share a good book on a rainy, thunderstormy kind of day?
Evidence #3: I can't tell you yet because I might jinx it, but it has to do with Delayna and sleep.
Evidence #4: Last night at dinner I announced that we were going to get the timer and spend a few minutes picking up each room after the dishes were done. We negotiated and ended up deciding we would work 5 mintues in each place. The girls had a melt down/fight during the first room. But Braydon stuck with me and after the first timer beeped said, "Mom, I want to do 10 minutes in each room." Away we went. The two of us got a lot done, and even more important to me, he was doing it with a smile! P.S. The girls did become friends after writing down a report of the incident they could both agree on. It was complete just in time to to be done working and head to bed. I'm sure they'll be super helpers tonight.
Evidence #5: Mike had to leave on my birthday and was gone for dinner. The kids made a dinner menu, a at the house food charge card with $100.00 for me to use, and let me choose my dinner which they made and served me in bed. Abby then made dinner for the rest of the family. They also made me a write my own mystery story kit. Cool Birthday.
