Twins Can Be Fun!

I think it is so much fun seeing little girls and their dolls dressed alike! It doesn't matter if the outfits are exactly the same, or even if they are the same color. I thought I would post some pictures of my Lil Mama and her dolls. I hope you enjoy them!

You've Already Paid For The Tickets!

This is what my Lil Mama told me this morning when I said I didn't feel like going to Disney On Ice tonight. I try to get tickets at least once a year. They come to the Baltimore area twice a year. I really enjoy it once I get there, but I am tired and don't feel like going. Nobody told Lil Mama to be so smart and to point out that I would be wasting money if I didn't go!

What am I going to do with her?

Organization Is Key To Lots of Activities

This fall Lil Mama is involved in three activities. Awana(a Christ-centered youth program), gymnastics and swimming. All three of these activities were to start upon the return from Hawaii. She has been to two Awana meetings and has earned the right to buy her vest and handbook by reciting John 3:16. We missed the first gymnastics class because there was an accident and I didn't pick up Lil Mama until the start time of the class. Gymnastics is 25 minutes away, so she didn't start that until last week. Swimming started this past weekend....or so I thought. When I looked at the schedule of the class, I had it in my mind that this past weekend was the start date. It didn't matter that the dates didn't coincide with that. So we arrived at swimming at the YMCA. Her old camp counselor was at the front desk and I asked her where did we need to go. She said it doesn't start til next weekend. The light bulb goes on, and I let out a groan. A groan not only because I was there on the wrong day, but because I had gone early to pick Lil Mama up from my sister's where she had spent the night. Lil Mama was not ready to leave and she could have actually stayed there longer. At that point her old counselor said to just go into the class, and that the instructor wouldn't mind. Thank God!! Lil Mama was thrilled that she got a ribbon for completing the class, even though she was only there one day.

After all of that Lil Mama's day was not done. She had to go home and then get ready to go to a Zeta Phi Beta function with my girlfriend and her daughter. My mother told me that Lil Mama has a better social life than I do. LOL!

She may possibly be in four activities for a short time in the spring. Pray for me please!! As you can see organization is certainly needed to keep track of all the activities.

My Lil Mama Will be Excited.....

Here is a new doll website that is not quite finished yet, but is certainly intriguing. Lil Mama loves to go websites where she can design stuff, and actually has created a doll through Hasbro. I'll have to share a picture of our Lorifinas at a later date. It is nice to see dolls come out with realistic features. I won't be showing Lil Mama the website yet, because I don't want to keep hearing "is it done yet?" I can't wait to see the finished product. In Dolls Like Me's newsletter, they mention that they are supposed to be ready for Christmas and priced around $79. I will post again once the website is finished. If you have new products that you know about, please feel free to share.

Why "Who's The Mama Here?"

Well I honestly thought it would be fun to start a blog. I wasn't sure exactly what I wanted to focus on, but thought I would just post miscellaneous thoughts and happenings on my journey that I call life. I've been told on several occasions that my six year old daughter "has been here before." Some of the things she says are really outlandish, and it's hard sometimes to keep a straight face. I really do wonder sometimes "Who's The Mama" because it's almost as if she tries to take care of me. She is certainly a blessing to me, and think she is growing up beautifully without a father who is active in her life. It can be difficult for parents who have to be both the mother and the father, but with God's help it is possible to raise self-confident child. My Lil Mama is the love of my life and she certainly makes life interesting. Until the next time......
