My So-Called Homeschool

Pink Pixie has been suffering from Middle Child Syndrome lately — too much attention for older sister and younger brother, not enough for PP.  I was mentioning this to my friend whose son I babysit and she said “Maybe you should spend some one-on-one time with her.”  Duh!  I would have given this advice to anyone else having this issue, but did I think of it for myself?  Noooooooo.   So yesterday when I went for a haircut, PP went along.  She decided on the spot that she needed a haircut as well.  It turned out adorable (as if there were any other possible outcome!) and mine turned out OK too.  We ran out of time last night, so today we continued the special attention time and went to Target.  She’s so sweet — she decided we’d go to Target for ‘our’ time to look at possible gifts for Jasmine’s upcoming birthday.  They might bicker like cats and dogs, but underneath there they really do love each other!  Pink Pixie had a Bubble Yum Icee (blech!) and I had a Starbucks White Chocolate Mocha with Rasberry (Yum!).
