Darby had plans this evening, which included going to a hockey game with her best friend, as well as then staying over at her friend's. I made an agreement with Shelby that if she didn't say a single word about her non-participation in the aforementioned activities that I'd take her to do whatever she wanted. She came up with "it's Daddy-Shelby Day" on her own.
So what did she want to do? Not a movie. I tried that several times. She wanted to go shopping (yes, she's only 8). She wanted to go to the mall and spend away her Christmas gift cards. So, we went to the mall for a few hours, where she got some good deals on girlie stuff. She also got herself a haircut. I think she was reasonably happy with the quality of her evening in comparison with that of her sister. No compliants so far.
