Something's Happening

I am NOT just hearing things.
The latest Missy quip: 
"Is Daddy coming home late tonight?" 
Usually she would have just asked, "Daddy come home 'night?"

What's a mom to do? I can barely stand to correct cute stuff like, 
"Tomorrow, can I have little bit punky pie?" 
And stuff like  
"May I have a pear a apple, peas?" 
which is interpreted, may I have a piece of apple, please? 
This is ALL new folks. 
Somethings going on in that head of hers. 
New words are spouting out all over the place.
Some of the words she tries out are misplaced, but generally speaking she's right on.
This wasn't happening last week...

Both children finally could not stay up until 8:30. The were both out before their light therapy was over around 7:30. Perhaps this is why we've been dealing with some behavior. I have cut their sleep time by a whole 2 hours and yet amazingly they haven't seemed that tired, but it has finally caught up and they just could not stay awake tonight. Buster fell asleep and Missy was begging to go to bed. To be honest, I am thoroughly exhausted, too and that's why I'm having a harder time with the silliness, maybe. It's not the sleepy kind of tired, more like the deep, down, bone tired.

Vanessa witness two car accidents yesterday. One in the morning and one in the evening on the same road, in the same place. She saw everything. The first involved a pedestrian and was pretty serious. The second was a head on at a slow pace. Both girls were okay.
Next she was NEARLY in an accident on the highway.
Some guy came speeding out onto the highway  nearly hitting her and then slowed to a crawl in front of her making her break really hard to avoid hitting him. The people behind
nearly rear-ended her. 
We are thankful for guardian angels!!
