Alexandra saves the day!!

The girls have spent the better part of the afternoon and into this evening cleaning up their birthday toys. Trying to get them out of Makenzies room and into their own rooms and toy boxes. This has been quite the struggle with at least 30 or so... Get back in there and clean up the mess threats. I was in the middle of seasoning a chicken for the rotisserie when Jacqueline walks into the kitchen and mumbles something about something.. blah blah blah and under Makenzies desk blah blah blah... so I told her, just crawl under there and get it out then ... Ill admit, I was in a mom zone, of getting a chicken on, making cookies and worrying about the four page paper, I had due tonight on feminism that I had not even begun or knew how I was going to begin. Soooo, I wasn't really listening to what she was saying.
I went back to finish my chicken and walked out of the kitchen and there stood a very jubilant Jacqueline proud as a peacock holding Mrs Butterfly.... I yelled you found Mrs BUTTERFLY!!! She said yes! and was jumping up and down... Then it dawned on me... under Makenzies desk! She said, she was behind a box, behind Makenzies desk the whole time! Turns out, she got Alexandra to crawl under there behind the box and get her out! I knew she kinda loved her sister...
Whew! I guess she won't be needing that butterfly pillow I ordered that I was going to try to convince her was just as good as Mrs Butterfly. So, daddy comes home and he's as excited as she is. She then sat down Mrs Butterfly and said, Butterfly, I was so worried about you! I know how fricken cute right? Well, this whole time she's been sleeping with this velvety elephant Adam gave me a few years back that sleeps on my shelf in my room... She gave him a new gender, he was a she and he was no longer Charlie, but now Eloise. She has carried, he/she around for days now. So, Adam asked her if mommy could have her Eloise back, and she looked at me and said, can I give her back to you when your three? So, it looks like Ive lost Charlie for a while, but we now have Mrs Butterfly and one on the way!
