My favorite time of day!


I love our nightly routine before bedtime! We usually spend about 15-30 minutes doing something educational. During this time we also talk about the day and tonight Gigi said to me, "don't tease me." I wasn't sure why she was saying this as I wasn't teasing her so I asked if someone teased her at school and she that Kayla did. She couldn't tell me what Kayla said or did to tease her but she did say that Kayla was her friend and that she liked to play with RJ too. I was so delighted to hear her talk about her new little friends. She really loves school this year. After we get ready for bed Gigi picks out a book to read to me. Tonight she read a new one with LOTS of new words, Moose and Mouse. The Writing Fairy brought it. Gigi invited her little mouse and tiny little moose too since it was a book about them. Then using her Hippo as a pillow (with Mouse in his mouth and Moose on his ear) she read the book to us. After she reads to us we say our prayers, we share big hugs and kisses and then she lays down on her elephant and goes to sleep. It's only about an hour a night but it's always the best part of my day! I'm still not sure where she came up with "don't tease me" but she's been saying a lot of new things lately and I'm sure it's a result of school. She's says, "just kidding" a lot now and it's just adorable! Hopefully none of the kids will have anything too bad to share with Gigi! So far it's all been very cute!
