11/4/05

7:20 PM: Sophie is still quite tired much of the time (although she has occasional bursts of energy). We think it's probably the steroids, given that she's often prone to bouts of irrationality. She napped this morning from 11:00 to 12:30 (we sent Shatesha home early), and then we all went to an awards ceremony at Elisabeth's school. There was only one other child in her class who made the "Principal's List" for making straight A's. That makes us feel extra proud of her--they're not just giving out those A's for free! Sophie was already complaining about wanting to go back to sleep before they got to Elisabeth's class, so we left as soon as her award was announced. I don't think we embarrased Elisabeth. Sophie slept again from about 2:30 to 4:00 (I think--I wasn't really paying attention to the time). We went out for a quick dinner and grocery shopping, and Sophie is already in bed for the night. Poor little kidlet.

Cute Sophie story of the day: When we were in the car tonight, I was telling Randall about a teenager at the clinic who was singing the Ramones song "I want to be sedated" after he woke up from sedation. Sophie chimed in with "Yeah! And he was naked too!" (which, to the best of my recollection, he was not!).
