Sleep overs

When I went to Sydeny Haylie slept over at Grandma's house for the very first time. She loved it and has been asking to sleep over again.

This week we got to catch up with a friend and Haylie practically invited yourself to sleep over her house. Her husband was working night shift this week so she welcomed the company.

On Saturday before being picked up she was very excited. She helped to get her bedding and clothes packed and made sure she had all her toys to sleep with. When she heard the knock at the door she ran over and was jumping up and down with excitement!

She couldn't wait to get in the car and leave. After some quick hugs and a short wave she was off.

We met up at church today and she came running over and gave me a big hug but she didn't want to sit with us. She sat up the back with her friend. I thought she might of gone back and forth a bit but she stayed with her the whole time. After sacrament I went to give her her fruit for nursery and to take her to nursery but she didn't want me to take her. She wanted her friend to take her.

After church was finished she didn't want to come home with us. She had decided that she wanted to sleep over again. So there she is spending a second day at her friends house.

It has been fairly quiet around here. It doesn't matter what child is missing, when one is gone it seems so much quieter. There seems to be less fighting, less questions and less mess.


I hope that when she comes home tomorrow she doesn't get too upset. When she has her mind set on something it can be hard to change it. I guess we shall see in the morning!
