tenacious

there a few words to describe jade: stalwart, unwavering, really really smart, tenacious...we got these glow in the dark bracelettes (sp?) from micheals for a dollar the other day. last night cameron gave jade one before bed. he told her he was only giving her ONE. she wanted the other one, she wanted an orange one. ten minutes of arguing later and she finally realized that dad was serious. he would give her the 'orange' one tomorrow. she went to bed. In th wee hours this morning i hear jade's door open. it is dark. its the dark right before the sun comes up, so you know its morning but to be awake is a sin. then i hear a plastic bag, our door 'orange, mommy, orange' huh? 'orange dada' 'jade what time is it? you need to be in bed, get back in bed now.' 'orange dada' She had woken at the crack of dawn found the bag with the glow in the dark bracelettes hidden behind the couch and come to tell us that she wanted her orange bracelette now. it was tomorrow afterall. you know that this girl is always going to get what she sets her mind on...stand strong in the face of opposition and accomplish her goal because dang it orange bracelette are IMPORTANT!
