Just Another Day

Today was a very exciting day for the girls! They were up bright and early at 6a to get ready to get their pictures taken. I was not exactly excited to be up, but ended up needing every spare minute. The girls pictures went well and I hope that they turn out. They both looked so beautiful! Not for lack of trying. Putting make-up on a 3 and 5 year old is not easy, let alone full stage make-up! I put liquid eyeliner on Cat and some of it got in her eye. Apparently it stings and she started to cry....runny make-up. So, she had a little time out to finish, while I worked on Sarah, who was convinced that I was trying to poke her eye out with the mascara wand and she too started bawling....more runny make-up. So after starting over on both of them, they ended up looking slightly moist and splotchy, but it was done and they were happy and alive with both eyeballs. The studio was crazy today with all of the girls and Moms all jittery and excited. I happened to walk through on my way to watch Sarah dance and had to ask the photographer about their combined picture. Said photog was extremely androgynous and I had no idea whom I was speaking to. I asked Miss Angie, the girl's teacher, and she started to laugh and said she had no idea either, but wanted to know. We proceeded to giggle like little school girls trying to figure it out based on outward appearance, but in the end I just asked her name, which was Laura, much to Angie and my surprise. We were very wrong. What a day. We also went to the Fisher's to go swimming and now I am so tired I am going to bed early. Tomorrow is another busy day and this weekend is fast approaching.
