I wish I was a little girl again!

Today I woke up for work, feeling a little bit better than yesterday.  Work was sooooo busy today, all of our Thanksgiving check in's were starting to come in today.  Before I knew it, I looked at the clock and it was already noon.  I got off work at 3pm, came home to pick Jordan up, went to Walgreen's to pick up a few things.  We got home and I totally forgot that I needed to get cat litter.  So Jordan and I had to run to Walmart to get cat litter.  We picked up cat litter and Jordan says, "Sissy, I wonder how much lead is here?"  Jordan and her class is obsessed with mechanical pencils and the lead that fills them.  When I was her age the gelly rolls or gel pens (in all the different colors) were popular and we all had to have them.  I guess the new in thing is mechanical pencils and lead.  So we looked at the mechanical pencils and lead....I guess I am a sucker for Jordan because I bought her 4 new pencils, lead, and erasers!  She was sooooo excited!  She talked about it the whole way home.  She was like oh I got a pink one and now I have so much lead, and this one will stay home, and these ones will come to school with me......So we got home and she put all of it in a baggie and took out the ones that she wanted to keep at home. 

I wish I could be a little girl again!  Things were so much easier when I was her age....didn't have so much on my mind, and little things like pens/pencils/lead could make me the happiest girl in the world.  Growing up kind of sucks!  I know when Momma Donna gets home she's going to ask how much I spent on the stuff for Jordan, then say I shouldn't have or that I didn't need to buy her those things, and then she'll say well here's the cash for them.  Then I'll say, no it wasn't that much, they're just pencils, I'm a sucker for Jordan, I can rarely tell her No, I just love her so much and if something so small can make her so happy, I am all for it.  I just love that little girl so much!
