A Day in the Life of Sydney....

This morning Sydney got up, ate breakfast, dressed in her very pink t-shirt which read "Quilter in Training." Off to Sunnybrook Farm Preschool to learn her stuff, play with Martina, Aden and a new girl named "Lasagna" (her teacher said the new girl is named Leona! At least that's what Sydney called her. Syd told me that they played with the babies. "I really, really like to play with the babies, Grandma!" she said. I told her that we could play with babies next time she came to my house. "Oh, but you don't have the right babies at your house." Guess she told me!

After Preschool she comes to the quilt shop. First off she finished her lunch....she asked for peanut butter on her carrot (yes, carrot....I thought it was kind of weird, but whatever!) and when she finished she had to do HER job at Scottie Dog Quilts. She had to water the flowers in the outdoor flower box.

Lori came bearing gifts....really cute sunglasses and Tinkerbelle sox. Sydney posed for a picture with a big smile. Can you see the peanut butter all over the shirt?

About 4:30 Sydney brought her mom a picture she'd colored. I was busy putting borders on another Eureka! quilt (pictures tomorrow) and Lori, Liz & Laura began to laugh. When I looked to see what they were laughing at I could see Sydney....three minutes earlier she was coloring....now she was snoring and had fallen asleep on the stool.

We couldn't leave her in the walkway so while Liz & Laura prepared a quilt and pillow, Laura picked up Syd and they tucked her in...


The Quilter in Training turned into Sleeping Beauty.

And that was the excitement at Scottie Dog Quilts today.

Those last two photos of Syd are the best. I am jealous! I wish I had those quilts to snuggle to sleep in! What a great her-story you are creating for Syd. Way to go Brennalou!!!
