mellybrellyI just taught Reagan how to do Chinese skipping rope. Is that name still politically correct?? Man, I loved that game when I was a kid. I did a few and realized I get winded a little faster than when I was a kid!! Luckily I was smart enough to show Reagan how you can play with two chairs, so I wasn't stuck with my legs in skipping rope for hours. I'll have to remember more of the skipping songs, and teach them to her, so she can teach her friends at school. We were intense, we used to even put the skipping rope up around our shoulders! I have no idea how I jumped that high.
She has been so well behaved all weekend, which just makes it so much more fun around here. She's doing math games with her dad right now, with an awesome attitude. I asked her to clean something and she just said "sure!" and jumped up and did it. I think kids are honestly happier when they have nice boundaries and expectations laid out for them.
Her cousins are running late, but the house is nice and clean and I have coffee buzzing through my veins, so I think I'm ready!! Woohoo! Sleep-over time! Too bad it's raining!!
