Resignation Celebration

Oh, it is such great news. Mom said at dinner that we were celebrating Resignation Day. I couldn't figure out what that big word meant, so Mom explained that it meant that she told Sallie Mae that she was not coming back to work. She's gonna be with me and Evelyn every day now! I told Mom that is great and gave her a high five! :) Then, we went to the mall to celebrate (ok, actually to exchange a pair of shoes but it was just Mom & me). Then, the good day kind of had a bad turn.....

I love people. I love to talk to them and say hi - especially kids! But, the kids at the mall weren't so friendly. I kept saying hi and waving and smiling my prettiest smile - but nothing. They didn't even say hi back. I don't get it. Mom says that people are too busy to pay attention and they miss out on great things like meeting new friends. It still kind of hurts my feelings. People should be nicer and say hi back. I know I would.

Then, when we got home, I was in a hurry and jumped out of my seat, opened the door and then slammed it shut -- right on poor Blacky's tail. She was crying a terrible cry and Mom jumped out and freed her. I felt terrible. I went to her, pet her head and told her how sorry I was. I just couldn't even bear to tell Daddy what horrible thing I did. I just feel awful. I sure hope she is OK and forgives me. I know God will heal her tail - and I'll be sure to ask that he takes any pain away. Maybe Mom'll put a Diego band-aid on it and some of that special pain reliever gel she has. That's sure to work!

Anyway, I did notice that E2 was in a good mood today. She slept the entire time we had a play date at our friends - and then didn't cry as much. Mom also seemed to be pretty happy. She said that is because she got a full night's sleep and E2 only woke up once early this morning, but went right back to sleep. E2 also smiled a lot today. She sure is cute when she smiles. Probably looks almost as cute as I did when I was a baby.

I hope you have a great night and remember, if a cute lil girl (or even a boy) says hi to you, be nice and say hi back. Jesus would.
