My now 10 year old daughter woke up at 5:30 am in the morning to clean up the house before rushing off to school for my birthday!!!! On her own, without any prodding or suggestions from me -- it was a total awesome surprise. Now she is all grow up.
The ongoing chronicle of a 3 year old (as of 2006) seeking enlightenment and an unlimited amount of sweets, and her parents' struggle to control the latter and help with the former.

Appreciation
Gwenchik just got her own violin for music classes at her school. All excited she ran home violently swinging the case around...
Gwen: I'll go practice outside, so that you do not have to listen to squealing noises as I do not know how to play yet.
Me: Ok, if you want go in the back yard.
Gwenchik went into our driveway, sat on top of our car and proceeded to play her new violin. 20 minutes later she walks back into the house.
Gwen: Mom, can you believe it, non of our neighbors appreciated me playing the violin. Only one politely acknowledge me, the rest pretended not to see me. Can you believe that?
