Go X! Revisited

Sorry, no picture today. But a good story. Yesterday when we got home from daycare it was raining. We came in the house and Stella asked for "Mickey Mouse?" I did not want her in front of the tv so I said "No, Mickey is taking a nap." So then she looked at me and asks "Watch Go X?" meaning XU b-ball. I told her that XU wasn't on. Then she starts yelling "Watch Go X! Watch Go X!" Since I had to feed Charlotte and get dinner going, I asked her, "Can mommy watch the news?" because sometimes she just seems to need the tv on as background noise and quickly ignores it as she starts doing puzzles, coloring, etc. The answer replied, "Mommy no watch news. Watch Go X!" At this point, I did turn on the tv and started surfing the sports channels praying for any b-ball to be on because I really didn't want to deal with a meltdown. No basketball to be found...BUT one football game and one baseball game. I asked her if baseball would be ok..."YES! Watch baseball!" Seriously, she sat and watched baseball in her little chair. AND on the commercials, she asked for football. I have NO IDEA what got into her. Andy was very proud when he got home thirty minutes later and she was still into the baseball and football games.
