Today my sis was off from work and was here in the house, so I got to spend most of my day hanging out with Clarice and Angie. It was nice. Angie and I played LIFE while Clarice worked on her ladybug house. It was cute watching Angie come up with the rules since we couldn't remember how the game went. Isn't that something... forgetting how to play LIFE? I served us all cups of water and when they saw I added lemon to mine they kindly requested that they get some lemon too. So there we were playing for a good couple of hours. All the while sipping on lemon water and singing along to Adele. Yes. My girlies enjoy Adele. Angie even complimented me and said that the song "Set fire to the Rain" sounded better when I sing it. . . Oh, bless her little heart!
Later Clarice asked me to watch her use her bike without the training wheels outside. Of course I accepted the invitation. I watched her go back and fourth. All the while she had the hugest smile on her face. She was so proud of learning how to ride in one night without the training wheels. I couldn't help but feel very happy for her. After a while she got off and told me that she finally was my complete twin. That she could now go riding with me. I couldn't help but smile and give her a big 'ol hug and agree.
We headed back inside where Clarice and Angie asked to watch one of my movies. They both picked "Elf". Which I thought was odd because Christmas is still pretty far away, but they said it's always a good day to see "Elf." So I put it on.
Meanwhile I went on with my daily tasks. As the movie finishes Clarice tells my sister and I "I'm gonna start being good... Santa's watching and Christmas is coming!" It was so cute! All I thought at that moment was "You are good. You are perfectly good just the way you are." Because they are. Those two are truly my pride and joy.
