The night of the snow day.

Ammar got home late. We ate together, and of course, Nadia didn't feel like eating good dinner... !!! I gave her brocolli, and then she said : "I need ranch!!!" We both looked at each other, laughing, and thinking how in the earth she knows about ranch... and we realized, at school she eats her vegetable with ranch. I gave her ranch and said to Ammar : "Our daughter is a real American now." and... Nadia didn't eat her brocolli.... Hmmm....

Nadia : "I need a wipe"
Ammar : "Here it is.. did you make a mess ?" He came to checked the living room.. no messy spills.. wondering what she was up to.
Nadia apparently lined up her little chairs, like a choo choo train, put the wipe on one of the chair. It was too big.
Nadia : "This is not a good wipe"
Mommy : "Here is a different wipe"
Nadia : "Thank you..!!!" (happily)
She went to the chair, put the wipe there, it fits really well on it.
Nadia : "I need more wipe, please!!!"
Mommy : "How many do you want ?"
She didn't answer... I went to figure out.. I think she needed 3.
She played by herself for a while, she got books, put them on the chair which lined with the wipe.
Then she put a kitty cat pillow.. she came to me again.
Nadia : "I need another wipe, Mommy!"
Daddy : "What's that for ?"
Nadia : "Kitty cat's blanket"
Daddy : "Here you go. that's the last one"
Nadia : "Last one ? Thank you."
Then she sat on the last lined chair.....!!!!
The project is completed.


Nadia : "Daddy, come sit with me, do you want to play with me ?"
Daddy : "Yes, Nadia.. how do you want to play ?"
Nadia was holding 5 big chalk, she put one of the wipe on the carpet, trying to stand them up
Nadia : "I want to make a castle"
Daddy : "OKay, let me get one."
Nadia : "No, Daddy, don't touch it, It's DANGEROUS!!!"
Daddy : "Hey, how am I going to play if you don't let me touch... Sari, did you hear what she said ?" (laughing)
Mommy.. hahahhahaaa


At night, both of us were so worn out.... Nadia was so energetic, it's 9.30 pm.. way to late for her bed time... Finally we just went to our bed, lying, Nadia followed.... and climbed around our bed...
Until one point, we thought she was going to hurt herself climbing around, so Ammar took Nadia to her room, in the dark, and closed the door a little.. We heard Nadia complaint... but 5 minutes after, I didn't hear anything from her.. Ammar has already asleep....
15 minutes after... I checked on her... she tucked herself in the blanket, neatly and already in heaven... sleeping .....
Oh, my girl is so big now...!!!
