Alright. It's what she says when she's in agreement. Alright can be said with happiness and enthusiasm or with anger and resentment.
Last night, the Animalia was exhausted. She'd refused to take a nap and had an active day so at 6pm, about an hour before it's ok for her to go to sleep so that she won't wake up at 4am, she started to doze off. I came up with the brilliant idea that I would bribe her with a popsicle. That would surely keep her awake.
So I ask her, her tiny eyes closing, if she'd like a popsicle. Alright, she said quietly. I brought her a popsicle and opened for her. Her eyes were tiny slits but still, she took it. She held it for a second and her head drooped. Are you going to eat your popsicle? I asked her. She opened her eyes just a tiny bit. Alr...
She was done for the night. I removed the popsicle and put her in bed at 6:05pm. She slept til 5am. Alright.

About Me
- flojera_tremenda
- flojera_tremenda means either a giant lazy ass or a great tiredness. I think it describes me perfectly depending on the day. Mi Animalia... a play on my daughter's name. She's my monster, I called her pansona at first, now her name is Animalia and sometimes Mals. And then came baby #2. First she was Magdi or Mads, now she's called Teeny by her doting big sister. Whatever. I'm really enjoying motherhood. It suits me. So I started this blog to keep track of the Animalia and then later Mads and to have somewhere to talk about how cool she is. Not everyone cares about kids. And I mean that in the nicest way possible.
