Yesterday Eddie told me she wanted to be a princess/doctor when she grew up. I thought that was very cool. She also said she wanted to live in a castle/mansion. Okay, I swear I have never intentionally tried to give her princess envy. I'm thinking maybe it is a naturally occurring state of mind, sorry mom! At least she is trying to do it independently and not relying on a prince charming or a rich husband! I'm not sure what kind of doctor she would have to be to be able to afford a castle/mansion, but I wish her all the luck in the world. Who knows, given the right circumstances anyone can be a success, right? She wants to have rooms for all kinds of pets. The dogs and cats are going to be separated into two rooms. The dogs get to have stuffed cats that they can chew on, and the cats will have real trees in their rooms. Eddie said that when she gets her castle/mansion that I have to come and live with her. She said she'd have plenty of room and we could make it a party house! I'm sure she meant tea party, but I'm thinking party, party!! So I have now agreed to live with her until I am old and gray. Hey, at least someone wants me, right? I can be 'Andie - Queen of the Manor'. Who knows, maybe princess envy turns into princess reality every other generation. I'm going to believe it does. Being a princess was my dream, but settling for the mother of a princess would be okay too.
We spent another night alone. It sure is quiet around here lately. The kids are getting enough sleep and I must be too, 'cause I'm not nearly as crabby. I was thinking about how lonely it is, but the alternative would be yelling and I think I would rather be a little lonely.
