"I'm proud of you Mommy!"

For the past few weeks I have been putting off taking my car through the car wash. About 3 weeks ago I made a trip to see my mother and you know what that can do to a car.......the front was covered in bug guts and pieces! YUK!!! Anyway, every time Rachel passed by the front of my car she cringed and said, "Mommy, joos need to wash joo caw!"

Well, yesterday our district was let out early just so we could come back from 4:30 til 6:30 to meet with parents. SO, in my free time I ran some errands and one of those errands included getting my car washed! (Carlton was shocked!) When I picked up the kids from the daycare for some reason Rachel walked around the front of my car. (she never does that) In doing so she noticed that the bugs were gone and it led to this:

R - "Mommy did joo get joo caw washed?"

M - "Yes Rachel, I did! Please hurry and get in the car."

R - "Oh Mommy, I like it. I am so pwoud of joo!!!"

Then she ran around the side of the car where I was waiting and gave my leg a hug and a kiss. She can be so sweet! :) Oh, by the way...no timeouts yesterday, and she stayed dry all day at school!! WOOOHOOOO!!!!!!
