The Kids Were Here #5

Well this month is short and sweet and to the point. Just as is the ONE picture I have selected for this month.

She had been having a long, tired, week of school, homework, her own activities and  her 13 year old sisters basketball games. This one particular night she had reached her limit.

She came in my room told me she was sorry and gave me a big hug. She quietly walked out, went into another room at that time, came back to my room and told me good night. And off to her room she went. I went to tuck her in and kiss her good night and then made a stop off in the computer room (where I do all the editing, blogging, etc). This is what I saw:
