We Skyped with my mom today and my family opened all the gifts we picked out for them over the computer and it was so cute.
The cutest being this: First my brother opened his gift, and he asked, 'what do you think it is?' and I said, 'ooh, don't tell, don't tell!' and they didn't and he guessed a watermelon or a hippo in a tutu. It was a shirt. They died laughing.
Then my sister did the same thing. 'What do you think it is?' and before I could tell them not to say it, Natalina, who was SOOOOO psyched about my sister's present (she picked it out herself) said, I THINK IT'S A PURSE!
The devastation on her tiny face before she melted into the very puddle of loose limbs that damn near knocked the principal out was priceless.
She was like, SHIT, WHAT HAVE I DONE?!
LOL forever. But I told her she didn't give it all away because Angie had no idea the size or color of the purse or that it was a very special purse from Lilly herself. Which made her feel better.
...
Less cute is that there is something really wrong with Lilly's achilles tendon. She complained of some pain this morning, then it seemed to go away and she even played soccer with some neighborhood boys in the afternoon, running and jumping and all that good shit.
But at night it was swollen a bit, and she couldn't even walk on it. Made us carry her everywhere. Hopefully she just twisted her ankle or something? IDEK.
Anyway, they went to sleep IMMEDIATELY. (All day, Dulce was like, Mom, I just want to go to bed RIGHTNOW! lol)
Then Santa showed up.
Merry Christmas, everyone!
