An enthusiastic send off

Lauren could not wait for the girls to leave for school this morning.  You see Nana had gotten her a new set of watercolor paints -with glitter I might add and the deal was we would get them  out after the girls went to school.  She was most impatient that I made her wait until the table was cleared of the breakfast dishes and washed off.  She had a great time creating a masterpiece for each of her sisters and her daddy.  However she was done within about 45 minutes and then came into the livingroom and was “just going to wait here till the gails get off the bus”.  I finally convinced her that it was going to be a while and she decided to go watch a video.  We ran the gammut of things to do, coloring, painting, play dough, videos, but finally we made it through to time for the girls to get off the bus.  I must say, I don’t remember hearing much from her after that.  Good thing we are taking Oma to the Dr tomorrow, I don’t know what else we would find to do.  At least she hasn’t use the dreaded phrase ” I’m bored” …..yet.  We’ll see if she’s as glad to have them go tomorrow.  Oh I’m going to have to see if I can get some video of her because today she was doing double time to get all of her words out -she was having quite the conversation with herself….so cute.
