Eat, Sleep, Dream...

Mission accomplished! I have officially succeeded in brainwashing my 4 yr old to eat, sleep, and now dream TEXAS A&M!

This morning when Lexi woke up, she came running into the living room and shouted, "Mommy, Mommy, I had a dream!"

"Oh yeah? What about?" I was secretly hoping this was a prophetic dream that I would get skinny, get a house cleaning robot for Christmas, or even better that the Aggies would win a national championship in my lifetime!

"I was on the Aggies! I played basketball. And I was 4 just like I am now. And I couldn't reach the basket, so this big tall Aggie guy lifted me up on his shoulders so I could make the basket and we won the game!"

"WOW!" (This was even better than being skinny!)

And as I swelled with Aggie pride and wiped the tears from my eyes I said, "You make Momma so proud baby!"

Oh to make our parents proud!! Look at you go, girl! You already have your dream for your girl accomplished...at age 4, no less!! Talk about good work Mama. I was going to ask you about sending you a Christmas card but with your previous post, I will join your spirit and just say "Bah Humbug to you!"

Now, if we can get her out there in a football uniform, we might be able to win that national championship. She's small enough to just run under those guys legs. We've got a chance. You start practicing with her, and I'll buy the football uniform!
