It’s done

:cheers: Stick a fork in me! I’m done with the proposal.

Thanks to Kacey’s help, I now know where I need to tweak the synopsis to make it work. It’s the longest one I’ve ever done–9 pages. Ack! I’m usually a 5 page kind of girl. The quicker the better. On the bright side, it means I will probably be able to write this book faster than the others I’ve done. Maybe. It took me almost 3 weeks to do the synopsis which is HORRIBLE. The book turned out Amanda Quick-ish. I tried very hard not to do a villain in this book, but I guess I’m not quite ready to tackle that level of character-driven story. My idol is LaVyrle Spencer. Someday I’ll be as good as her level of writing (okay, so I’ll be ninety, but I’ll get there, okay?).

The kids enjoyed their Easter Egg hunt. My son was having a marvelous time. My daughter sat on the ground, looked at the three eggs beside her as it to say–you really expect ME to pick those up? Allow the peasants to serve me. It’s their purpose, after all.Baby's first Easter

If any of you have little boys and little girls, do you notice a difference in the way they behave? My boy is shy, but he has a great smile. My daughter has a sunny personality, but she is definitely a Princess (and don’t you forget it). :wink:

Last night I had my three-year-old son laughing hysterically. He asked me, “Mom, what are we having for dinner?” Usually I answer, to which he’ll respond–”I don’t like that. I’ll just have peanut butter and jelly.” I informed him it was bugs and sticks. He laughed so hard, he couldn’t contain himself. Gotta love three-year-old humor. But MAN, I was sick of that question. :mrgreen:
