Daddy & Daughter Date!

So, I've been sick and tired lately....ALOT! I've also been home 24/7 with my beautiful daughter Taylor (who is 5 going on COMPLETELY GROWN!). Unfortunately, at the present time, Taylor is an only child and has no one but MOMMY to play with during the day (we can't wait for school to start). Since mommy hasn't been exactly feeling up to par lately, the play dates have been a bit rough to say the least (almost non-existent to tell the truth). Yes, on occasion (and I mean rare occasion) we will invite a friend over for her to play with during the day, however, this seems to backfire as I end up exerting more energy tending to the two of them than I do with just Taylor. Anyway, to make a long whiny story short I have been begging my husband for some down time (you know, just some me time to relax and be at peace with myself...). So, drum roll please.....dum dum dum dum....THEY ARE ON A DADDY & DAUGHTER DATE TONIGHT! Yes, it is true! Trey is has taken her to the infamous Mc D's and then out to see Over the Hedge (supposed to be a hilarious animated flick) at the dollar theatre! Doesn't that sound like fun? And the best part is.....I don't feel a bit guilty! Not only am I not playing with her, but she is also not here at all, and I know she is still in good hands and having a blast! Everybody wins! Okay, okay, Trey might not necessarily agree at the present time (let's just say his patience nerve isn't quite as long as mine....and the child talks....ALOT!), but I'm sure in the years to come he will totally appreciate the wonderful memories and cherish the times he had with her while she was still little. So, just thought that I would update you on the peace and serenity that is happening in my home at the present....and to top it off there is a beautiful thunderstorm in the works. I have just gotten out of a nice refreshing shower and am about to curl up on the couch in my robe with a good book! Ah, life is nice. Suddenly I don't feel so sick and tired!
