I walk out into the living room from hanging up some laundry and notice that Kaylie is lining up couch pillows, in front of the front door and currently on the stairs. She does this every so often, and even though I thought they were ready for bed at 8:00 and put them there they are both still up, silly me they had a small car nap today! (What was I thinking??!!)
This very story goes to show that Kaylie is the sunshine in my life. She is a dramaqueengrumpypantsprincess that brightens my day no matter what my mood. I was a little grumpy (blame it on happy hour) and the pillows lined up on the floor made me smile! Kaylie is quirky, and a ray of hope in my gloomiest of days.
As soon as I smiled my mind said,"Quick go and blog this right away!" Everybody tells you that you don't blog enough about Kaylie, there has been too many failed chances lately and this is your opportunity! My anal retentive mind said, "No, Wait, you still have to unload the dishwasher." Not everyone knows this but I can't sit down and pay bills, do homework or anything until my house is straightened up!" I was always a late night studier in college because of this very reason, okay, so back to the story.....
While unloading the dishwasher, I spotted a pitcher which made me want to make Kool- Aid, that sugary substance that I drank quite often as a kid, and vowed not to let my kids have to much (cause is has sooo much sugar) but on a whim I bought some the other day, and it sounded good, and there is no wine in the house right now darn it! SO I made some after unloading the dishwasher and sat down to tell this story!
Kaylie wants me and the universe to know that they are "pillow towers" and if you've ever built a pillow tower, they don't get too high and fall down a lot. Try it sometime.
On a very thankful side note, my mother - in - law Nancy's surgery went well today and her outlook is very hopeful!
