Day 5 - Telling It Like It Is

After years of pestering, today Ben and I finally relented and let Charli have her very first sleep over.  As I dropped her at her friend Phoebe's house I struggled to hide my reluctance to let her stay, however Charli's overwhelming excitement made it obvious to me that she really felt ready for this 'big girls' adventure.
Charli called me tonight, from the Chinese restaurant she was taken to for dinner, to tell me she was having a great time.  When I told her that I missed her she replied that she didn't miss me - ouch!!!  She then went on to explain "I don't miss you, but I still love you".  Thank you Little Miss Maturity beyond your years.

*Today I am grateful for a dinner out with just my boys while Charli had her sleepover with Phoebe and Asha had a solo sleepover with Ga Ga*
