Joy...

...is getting your dress so dirty from playing outside that you spend the rest of the afternoon chasing bubbles in just your underwear. I realize the picture below isn't exactly an illustration of the above, but trust me, that's what happened.

And Violet was very, very happy... until she wasn't. As Juniper knows, it ain't always easy being a kid. It can be especially tough to be a kid who has foresworn naps and is out of coping skills at 5pm. No matter. She made it through dinner and bathtime and finally to bed to rest up for another day.
