Things I Have Learned From My Daughter

...greater patience
...smiling makes everyone happy
...how to make new things like gingerbread houses, paper crowns, overcooked cookies
...resting is not a necessity
...put all of your effort into sleeping when it is time and you will have a lot of energy
...how to make up even funnier songs than her daddy that mean nothing or are just about what you are doing right then
...Shakespeare has nothing on her for creating plays out of the blue, directing is her forte
...just pretending is really the most fun
...sometimes you need your "alone time" but usually only from certain friends and not from mommy
...Pacific Coooooooler is the Capri Sun of choice
...Mac & Cheese is only good when out of a box with powdered cheese, every other kind is too cheesy
...love can not be put in a box (a song she made up with her Uncle John)

will add more as they come to me!

...only two things really make you mad  - blankie in the washer and not getting your way at the exact moment!
