How do I measure time?

I had a nice day today. Started the day off by walking Morgan to school. Once we got there, we went "Walking with Mr. Walker." I saw Wesley's mom waiting outside of Morgan's classroom and I invited her and her son over for tea whenever they have the time. Afterward, Ayva, my mom and I headed over to the mall to go shopping. I purchased two new shirts, earrings and a pair of sunglasses. As we walked by the play area, Ayva asked if she could play for a while with the other kids. How could I say no? Ayva had a great time playing, and quickly found a friend to play with. We stopped by McDonald's for lunch before heading home. She wanted to sit at a different table than my mom and I. I allowed her to sit where she wanted, watching her like a hawk of course. I just love little Ayva, she has such an amazing spirit and is sweeter than molasses.

I picked up Morgan after school and then we headed over to her swimming classes. She did great! I am so surprised at how much she loves her swimming classes. The other mothers and I spent the entire time talking to each other like there was no tomorrow! The other moms do not work, and they appear very excited to be out of the house, and talking with other adults. They are very sweet ladies, totally devoted to their children. I think they should every now and then put on some high heels and grab a martini because they totally deserve it. Time elapsed rapidly. Before I knew it, it was time to go home.

As we were driving home Morgan informed me that she was going to receive an award next week. I am so incredibly proud of her. She is such a gifted child. Every day she says things that make me laugh hysterically. She brings home perfect test scores, has the vocabulary of a twenty year-old, and has excellent manners. Most importantly though, she has a heart of gold. I feel so lucky to have her as a child.

Well, that's all for now. I am about to write in my diary before I hit the sack.
