Thursday

Tatiana had a mostly stay in bed day.  She didn't wake up until 11 am.  Scotland was even up before her.  She did some math and then went back to bed.  She was in bed when I got home.  Then she got her soccer clothes on and we went to practice.  She did really good at the practice and the make-up game that happened afterward.  She was engaged in the game and tried really hard.  Several times she passed the ball to Jasmine who scored.  When we got home she said that she would do some of her math 'because it is fun.'  Then she needed a shower or a bath.  She decided on a bath.   I listened to her singing to herself the entire time.  She had the water up as high as it could go.  In fact, she asked why the water kept draining whichever way she had the drain switch.  I figured out that it was the overflow drain that she was triggering.   She was so happy. 

At bedtime, she was playing with her daddy and an earring came out.  Much trauma and whimpering.    I think she thought that it would hurt as bad to stick in the second time.  It took a long time but Scotland eventually found the back.   While he was still looking, I had taken the nice back out of my earrings and used it on hers.  I was just going to use one of the not-so-nice ones in my jewelry chest.  . I was happy when Scotland found her nice earring back.
