Emily (and painting photos)

After 12 days of sticker charting, Emily has finally scored a coveted star sticker. We kind of bent the rules a tad to help her out. I didn't want her to become discouraged, which was the direction she was heading in, so when she sprinted into my room at 5:40 this morning (well, it was really 5:33 because my clock is set 7 minutes fast) I decided that she had earned that sticker.

We gave Allie one as well even though she came in a few minutes later. I suspect that she was awakened by the newspaper delivery guy, who drives like a maniac.

I carried Allie and then Emily downstairs and the three of us fell back asleep for a bit on the couch cushions. Anna is feeling much better but still exhausted. She slept in her bed until a bit after 6:00 and then slept in the big bed until Rich woke her up shortly before 9:00!

Painting pictures. Em in pink.
