Seriously, there IS a diaper fairy!

I know, I know. You are all so sick and tired of my bragging about Amazon subscribe and save and how I get my diapers delivered right to my door. You too can participate in this amazing feature of the modern world. Sorry to harp on it, but I had to share about my recent run in with the diaper fairy.

Just 5 minutes ago I was sitting on the floor with Hope, looking at a toy catalog while watching Oprah (yes, we're having a productive afternoon). I realized she had a poopie diaper - the third one today. I thought about how there were no more diapers downstairs and strategized how I would run up quickly while leaving Hope alone in the living room. I'm sure that the department of child services wouldn't come get me for leaving a 17 month old unattended in the living room for 45 seconds, but then again, they don't know my daughter. The other day I took my eyes off of her for a minute and then discovered she had climbed all the way up the stairs into her room to get a toy then was making her way back down the stairs before I grabbed her off the third step from the top. . .but I digress. . .

So I was just about to sprint up the stairs to grab some diapers when I caught a glimpse of something colorful through my front door window. Purple. . .yellow. . .could it be?? YES! The diaper fairy had come and left me such a simple and wonderful gift. Diapers, free of the 45 second sprint up and down the stairs.

I can hardly believe it. It's true Virginia, there is a diaper fairy. And she comes right when you need her.
