... Once a Big Sister

... Always a Big Sister! Back in May, I had the chance to watch my niece Lexi for the day. Her parents went to Albuquerque early that morning and she had a water day at Preschool that she wanted to attend. Nolan & I were planning on going to Albuquerque later in the day, so we agreed to take her to school, pick her up from school and bring her to Albuquerque to her parents. No biggie right?! Well Lexi arrived at our house bright & early in the morning 5AM early!! I am not a morning person, but I will do whatever it takes for my nieces & nephews. So we layed in bed and watched cartoons till I "woke" up. When I was finally awake I found this...


...What is it you ask? A detailed letter (aka instructions) from Amanda telling me about what to do with Lexi. The letter was no surprise to me, well because #1 Amanda has OCD, #2 Sometimes I need to be told things more than once, #3 Amanda has OCD and finally Amanda has OCD!! I laughed about it, and followed her instructions one by one. I have saved the letter waiting for the perfect opportunity to get her back! Nolan & I are headed to Albuquerque today to attend the Temple with his cousin Carson, who is going on a mission. It so happened that he is going on my Birthday!! Perfect chance to spend a night away minus our Sweet Pea thanks to my lovely sister Amanda!!

While I was packing Sweet Pea's bag, I remembered Amanda's letter and made a funny version of my own! Here it is...


...It's a good thing my family was born with a sense of humor! Love ya Amanda and Thanks for taking care of our Sweet Pea!
