Best Part of the Day-
Scarlet had her 1st school mate/play date. She is a tiny red-headed girl who told me straight away she does not like to be referred as a red head. She just wants to be referred to as her name, Lilly.
Lilly, the spitfire, even kind of lives in the neighborhood! It was so funny to see them play and we ended up all doing a group coloring project and fun-with-beads crafts. At one point I eavesdropped on them in Scarl's bedroom. Oddly I heard Scarlet say this: "What's your mom like? My mom is really funny and silly. She's a great sharer and very giving. She's joyful! You'll like her." Her friend replied, "My mom's the same--but she's not funny. Really she's not." (Must relish now as in 2 years they likely will not be talking about their moms during alone time.)

Worst Part of the Day-
No Netflix, no books.

Also, kinda hard to see Liam get the major brush off as he thought Lilly was over to play with him, too. Scarlet did a fine job of being inclusive (she doesn't know yet not to...), but it was clear that Lilly thought Liam was the weird, drooly, highly affectionate little brother who would NOT leave them alone for an instant.

Happy Anniversary Mom and Dad!!! 39 years! Are you kidding me?? Congrats Lovebirds!!!!
