Alan took Jacob camping so I decided to plan a girls night out for my e little girls. Lindsey went to a carnival with a friend. The twins were so excited because they see me go out on girls night out and are always desperate to join. In fact they play girl's night all the time when pretending (we better warn their future husbands).
Anyway the girls chose a local bakery that has huge dessert case to drool over. It was a priceless time. Dinner conversation was the best part of the night Hailey said when she grows up she is never going to get her kids in trouble. Then she remebered she wants to be famous so she can't be a mother Sydney is quite sure she wants to be mother, but Hailey is very serious about becoming famous. I told her she could do both motherhood and being famous. I also asked her what she would do if her kids were bad? Sydney piped in that she might put her kids on time out but she would never ever yell at them. Hailey agreed. Oh my. The ladies behind me were laughing so hard.
As we drove home Hailey wanted to go to a store, a "make up store" which is Ulta. We picked nail polish. A real treat. I have thrown every nail polish away after so many serious disasters recorded here. I pray I won't regret it. The girls declared it the perfect girls night ever.
It's nights like this that reward me on my path of mothering. Being a mother to these girls. Innocent, excited and sweet. It's a gift today.

What a sweet night! Lauren tells me all the time what she will and won't do when she has a 'husmand and kids' It's quite laughable! My favorite is all the sugary cereals she is going to buy when she is "all grown up and I am old at home watching her kids!"
I am desperate to go on all your Girl's night outs too! ;P
I love that you took time to really let them be girls and listen (and record) the fun ramblings of their little minds. They will need a good listener when they are teens. (Don't we all need that still??)
Good luck with the nail polish. I hope you don't have any more of those disasters to report later!
Ps Love their bows!!
What a sweet night, and good memories in the making. Motherhood can be fraught with second-guesses, guilt and worry....it's good to remember the joy though, like you're doing here! They are so lucky to have an awesome Mom!
That is so cute and so funny. Glad they got to feel special on a gno with mom.
