It broke her little heart every time she had to leave her big sister at mammy and gump’s house to spend the night. She wanted to stay so bad, and she was determined that she would be big enough, and brave enough, but she was too attached to mommy and could not bear to leave her for even just one night.
So mommy and mammy devised a plan. She would finally get to spend the night, along with her sister and her mommy. The perfect solution.
The plan was set in motion and preparations were underway. She was so excited and it bubbled out of her and onto the rest of us. She could not wait.
They came bearing gifts. Each of us got a new pair of pajamas, so after dinner, the girls got their bath in mammy’s great big tub (a favorite thing for them),then they donned their new pj’s and the fun began.
We went from one project to another. They spent hours painting (another favorite), and coloring.
Even mommy joined in the painting fun.
Mammy and mommy spent time on their favorite things as well.
It was perfect !
She ended up with mammy for just about ten minutes, them spent the rest of the night with mommy. But she was happy. And mammy was happy. And we are already planning our next sleep over.
Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. James 1:17
