Of COURSE

I got home early last night and my sister, Joy and her family are still staying with us. Miss Muffet came up to me and said, "You don't have too, and please say no if you don't feel like it. Feel free to say no.But Jim and I were wanting to go to a movie tonight and need some time, would you mind watching Arika for us?" She will sleep for most of the time, but would you?"
Oh please!!! COme on!!! This is what I was thinking. Of course I would watch my cute niece!! And even if i didn't want to(which I don't think that day will ever come) how could you resit a cute button nose kid like this.

I mean come on. ;0) How could you not want to watch a little girl with a face like this. Seriously!! Of course I watched Miss Arika and we had fun. We ate and played with some blocks and had fun. She was not very happy with me about going down for bed, but she did not cry for long. It was a good evening and I enjoyed it. She is quite the character. She loves my cats, especially Allie, who does not like kids. Arika chased her around for quite a while and just thought it was the greatest thing. allie, kept moving and waiting for Arika to find her, so i guess she doesn't mind kids as much. i had a great time with her and I am sure her parents were thankful for a break.
