Sierra is taking a bible study course for homeschool girls. They are studying Exodus, and right now they are studying Moses as a baby. God blessed her amazing teacher by supplying 3 computerized "babies" for the class to use. You know those dolls that cry at any given time and must be 'consoled' with a key and then held, etc? Well, Sierra got her doll yesterday.
It was a lot of fun for her. We had a dinner to go to, so she got to bring her "baby" along and show it off. When we stopped at the grocery store on the way she was noticed by a few people. (One actually came up to me and said, "I am so glad that is a doll! I thought she was so young!!)
When we got home, Tim told her that she would probably want to get to bed a bit earlier.... after all, most babies don't sleep through the night!
Before we turned off the news and went to bed, at about 11:20, we heard the crying. Sierra was sound asleep, and I actually had to wake her. I'm not sure she was completely awake during the 15 minutes it took to 'feed &
console' her little one.I heard Tim mumble.... "the baby is crying" at about 1 am.
I heard her get up to a crying 'baby' at about 3 am.
She was up again a little after 5:30 when I was getting Tim off to work.
When I finished my bible time at about 7:30 am, she was staggering out of her room with the 'baby' in her arms......

She's had to put her school work aside once or twice already this morning to care to her 'baby'.
Don't get me wrong- she IS truly enjoying this. A LOT!
But when that 'baby' gets passed to the next girl tomorrow, I'm sure she'll be looking forward to a decent night's sleep!
Oh. And by the was---
I hate TV reality shows. ;)
