Sydney had her first overnight slumber party last night. She stayed overnight with two other four year olds. She did very well. They had a good time making tie dyed t-shirts and going to see the movie “The Game Plan“. (She liked the bull dog.) I definitely give kudos to the parents where she stayed. They had a gaggle of girls sleep over. (They have three girls, and it was the oldest girl’s birthday. She had some friends over for her birthday, but the middle and youngest girl both invited a couple friends to stay overnight too! I think that this is foreshadowing of my future. But I only have two girls. Whew!) The “sleep over” door is open. Sydney is growing up so fast.
[Updated 10/01/07]: I forgot to post this. When talking to the mom in charge of the sleep over when I picked Sydney up, she relayed this funny little story. I guess she got a full dose of Syd. That night, the mom was in with the three four year olds, getting ready to sleep. Sydney was in a giggling mood and kept giggling. The mom said to the effect of “Okay, girls. It’s time to go to sleep and stop the giggling.” Sydney said, without missing a beat, “But giggling is what little girls do.” This is classic Syd.
