Topic: Samantha n Company
Well I managed to survive another sleep over party! They are getting worse with age. Gone are the days when Mom could plan the games they play, instead it's truth or dare (with Mom downstairs hoping the dares aren't going to somehow affect her) and dance till you can't dance no more. Oh, I forgot to mention hide & seek in the dark, which quickly turned into playing under the hose at midnight! I tend to feel bad for the underdog in the crowd. There was one little girl that just seemed timid to me and seemed uncomfortable around these rowdy girls... but Sam assures me that she isn't and when I'm not around she is just one of the girls. Probablly so. All in all they are a good bunch and seem to be true friends. Ashley: lives next door to us. She reminds me of me when I was her age and although I hate to admit it, is slightly obnoxious, probablly the troublemaker of the group. Kayla: Sami's best friend, quiet, yet coming into her own. She spends most weekends at our house, so she is "at home" at our home. The sleepover was given for her, as she is moving away. Lindsey: a natural beauty with a contagious laugh. This little girl laughs at everything and I think she is the clown of the group. She is very outgoing and people are drawn to her. And Katie: Actually acts a little younger than the rest, a little niave, the one that I thought was the underdog. From what I hear her family is very religious. I met her parents though and they seem to be very mainstream. Last but not least, my Sami: The true 13 year old who doesn't want Mom to bother them, unless that is I'm dishing out money or driving them somewhere!
And there you have it. By noon, I had kicked them all out and I headed to work.....
