My Sweet Selena!
Today I spent the day with my niece Selena. I have to say I had the best time with her today. She is always sweet and loving but today she was just so incredibly sweet. After I picked her up I brought her home so I could finish up some things here at the house. She played with Molly for a while and then we both put on our makeup (she actually pretended) :-)
Then we hopped in the car and we headed out for the day. The first stop was lunch and she wanted McDonalds. We got our food and sat down . . .I sat across from her . . well as I sat down Selena said, "Aunt Emmy sit over here." So, I got up and sat down by her.
Then while she was eating she said, "Aunt Emmy, thanks" I said, "What for?" She said, "McDonalds." In about 10 minutes she said again, "Aunt Emmy" I said, "Yes". She said, "I love you." Oh my goodness, my heart was about to melt. She was just so sweet and loving all day today.
After lunch I told her we were headed to the store. She said, "Are we going to buy something?" I said, "Sure!" We then headed to Marshalls. She picked out a Dora book to take home with her! I returned some pants and picked up a Christmas present.
My kids just adore her. They are so good about playing with her and watching out for her too. I love the bond they have with her!
You Go Girls!Later on we took Selena home and then headed back to our house to wait for the boys. I got in the mood for apple pie so I made one for dessert for tonight. I also made grilled salmon, corn and mashed potatoes for dinner.
After I got Sierra in bed I sat down with a cup of tea and a slice of pie and talked to Lisa for about an hour. It was an end to a perfect day!
