So, most of the day today, my daughter was very "mommyish." She wanted Mommy for everything-- she didn't want Mommy to take a shower, she wanted to cuddle with Mommy, she wanted Mommy to play Barbies and read stories. Finally, I untangled myself from her so I could run errands while my husband took both kids over to their cousin's house (the cousin is just a few months younger than my daughter, who is four).
So, about an hour ago (~7:00p.m.), my husband calls me from his brother's house and says, "The girl wants to ask you something."
Girl (speaking very clearly and sounding about 11 or 12): Hello, Mommy.
Me: Hello, Sweetie.
Girl: Mommy, Can we have a sleepover?
Me (after a pause): You want to sleep over there?
Girl: Yes.
Me: Did you ask Daddy?
Girl: He said it was okay.
Me: Are you and the boy going to sleep there without Daddy?
Girl: Just for a few days.
I can hear my husband start to laugh in the background since I doubt he (or his brother) had agreed to the "few days" part. So much for being Mommyish.

That's adorable!
There are lots of things Mommy could get done in that amount of time...just imagine.
