SO CUTE

So my little sister Ashley, who is not so little anymore...asked a really cute boy, A SENIOR!, to Sadie Hawkins. She sent two of the cutest five year olds in the world dressed up as princesses, tiaras and all, to his house with a container filled with bubble gum and a letter written in calligraphy with the words:

Would you be my prince and go to Sadie Hawkins with me? written on it.

Ashley had put her name wrapped up in one of the two hundred pieces of bubble gum leaving him to sort through them all in search of his Princess!

Cute? Just wait...there's more. So tonight as I am eating a bowl of Rocky Road Ice Cream and reading my latest favorite book "Everyone Worth Knowing" by Lauren Weisberger...I heard a loud knock at the door followed by the doorbell ring. Being so into my book, I yelled for my mom who was in the next room...apparently asleep on the lovesack, to answer the door. When she didn't respond and the doorbell rang again...I curiously ran upstairs wondering who could be here knocking on the door at 10:45 pm! Ashley was at a friend's house so I didn't think it would be for her but when I opened the door...there stood a very large poster of a very cute boy along with a bouquet of flowers and a note. Ashley had received her much anticipated answer! I quickly ran inside and called her telling her that her question had been answered and to hurry home. I didn't want to mess anything up so I left everything the way it was and went back to my book.
About fifteen minutes later, the door bell rang again! This time my mom heard it and she went upstairs half asleep to go and answer the door only to see a bunch of guys fixing the large poster and running back to their car and driving off. She was a bit confused but was anxious for Ashley to get home and see it. I grabbed my camera and turned the poster facing the street so that she would see it when she came home....and then I waited with my finger on the record button.

As you can see from her reaction above...she was on cloud nine and I told her to read the note out loud that was attached to the flowers. It said:

Sorry he can't be your Prince...but I'll be yours. Marc





Where are these guys in my age group?? Seriously! It was fun to see her happy, and even though the girl drives me absolutely nuts sometimes...I love being able to share the Happy times in life with her and lying in bed together eating junk food, talking about boys and which ones we like, and laughing until our stomachs hurt....have been some of the best times since I've been home.

I really do LOVE you Ashley Elizabeth.
