Yesterday Stymie had Division staff duty where he is required to stay up for 24 hours and then gets to come home and sleep. Well, the girls were delighted to see their Daddy walk through the door this morning around 10 and were convinced that the day would be great fun with their Dad. I explained to them that he was very tired and needed to take a long nap before he could play. They then decided that they needed to take excellent care of their Dad by tucking him in, singing, and praying with him. They helped him into bed, pulled the covers up and realized that something very important was missing! Daddy didn't have any babies to sleep with! So, they graciously donated their most prized "babies" and tucked them in with Daddy to take a very long nap. Glory was especially concerned about her Dad and kept saying, "Daddy sleeping? I check him!" Then she would run down the hallway and try to open the locked door. After throwing herself down in frustration over not being able to see her Dad, she would yell, "HEY! HEY! MY DADDY! HEY! You open door!" Fun times for Daddy. Anyhow, he did finally get some much needed rest and the girls are happily coloring at the table with him at this very moment.

how sweet... what fun times you must have, dear Robin! Love, Jenn
Poor Stym! (But I'm secretly thinking that it's good for the daddies to sometimes experience what we go through daily...) hehehe
