She Won!

As fast as it arrived, this unwelcomed cold is also exiting in a timely fashion. I feel mostly clear headed this morning and not like all I want to do is crawl back in bed. In fact, since Sawyer actually slept until 7:45 (Hallelujah!) I got up with the kids this fine Saturday morning and am allowing Trevor to sleep in -something he hasn't done in well over a month. I figure that since I get an interrupted sleep thanks to one child or another all week that I'm entitled to sleep in on Saturday mornings. So when Sierra comes into tripping into our room and says
"Time to wake up!"
I burrow myself under the covers and pretend I've lost me hearing.

But I was feeling nice this morning.

A few weeks ago my mom saw a colouring contest in our local newspaper for tickets to the
"Max and Ruby" show that was coming to town. Sierra happened to be visiting that evening and with her 3 year old artistic abilities she carefully coloured the picture. Granny sent it in and lo and behold Sierra won.
She got 4 tickets to the show, 3 books and a DVD. I had the pleasure of taking her to the show The acting and sound quality definitely left something to be desired but Sierra loved it and it was fun to be there with her.
