Oh, to be three...
I spent much of my afternoon and evening with the three-year-old daughter of some friends of mine while they attended an event to benefit her pre-school. Kids that age amaze me. They're more than willing to ask you any question that pops into their little heads. They're totally unaware of boundaries and modesty. They're just kids. She spent a long period of time telling me all about her favorite things: animals, fruit, ice cream flavors, crafts. And she remembered that I had told her my favorite color is green. She looked at me while we were drawing pictures with crayons and said, "And here's a green one. I know how much you like green." No kidding. Later, when we were writing letters on her
Magna-Doodle, she asked me to tell her the letters to write to spell my name. When I told her that the first letter is "S" she looked and me and asked me if I would write it, saying, "S is very difficult." There's nothing that'll get your mind off of whatever is bogging it down like spending time with a small child.
Today's Weather: Hmm. Cooler and windy tonight. They say it'll be cold tomorrow as well.
Song going through my head: A jumble of nursery-rhyme songs, thanks largely to the time spent with a preschooler tonight. (=
