Yesterday my daughter and I had a little girl time. We went and got her hair done, and shopped for "girly things". I had forgotten what it was like to shop without a five year old boy nagging me to leave. It was a lot of fun. I really think that it did us some good to just be mom and daughter for a bit. She's been going through some changes lately, and needed a little time with out any BOYS around. We sipped some over priced coffee and wandered around without any rushing. It was nice.
The boys on the other hand beat us to the store. They were there while we were getting my daughters hair done. They Beat us to the Starbucks. Where my son left his most prized possession. Grover. Grover is worn and tattered but he's very special. We were standing at the counter when my girl saw it. "Isn't that ours?" I snatched up with a sigh of relief. I didn't even know it was missing but I knew disaster had been averted. Later we met up with the boys for pizza. It was a great day.
Today we have parent teacher conferences for the boy and a dentist appt for the girl. Then the fun stuff. Pumpkin carving! I'm leaving my daughter on her own for hers. I LOVE to carve pumpkins but we always start with a crowd and ends with me carving on my own. Not this year!

Aww, I'm glad you had some daughter/mother time. It's very important and I know your daughter really appreciate it. What a nice way to bond!!
And don't mom's always avert disaster, whether anyone knows it or not? It's our god given job I think :O)
I love girl time too. And i can get it with two generations.
Such treasured memories with my daughter and god daughter. I know how much you and your sweet daughter will treasure these kind of memories.
