We are just coming off Christmas break (thank goodness). Over the holidays we had some family staying with us; my parents, brother, sister in law, and their daughter Mya. She is almost exactly the same age as Scarlett, so we were rather excited to get the girls together.
The did so good! They played and played and played. I think it was sweet for Scarlett to have a little girl to play with. She is surrounded by her raucous brothers all the time, so playing dolls, ponies, and princess were a blast. The girls got along so well, and they enjoyed camping out in Scarlett's room, talking way past their bedtimes.
A couple of days before Christmas we decided to go out to the mall. The boys were gone skiing, Josh was working, so we decided to go shopping. We hit several stores and finally landed at Gymboree. If you haven't been, I highly recommend it. Mostly, because they have televisions in there, and little chairs. The kids are glued to it, and you can actually look around; unfortunately they don't have big people clothes. Or beverages. Plus there is only one door out, so you can be reasonably sure they (the children) aren't going to escape.
April, mom, and myself were browsing away. All of a sudden, Mya (I think she was first) came screaming up to us, very upset...."Aunt Sarah!!! Scarlett says that I'm not a princess, because she is a princess!" Right on her heals was Scarlett, "Mama! Mya says that I'm not a princess, because she is!" These two sweet little girls where in a fight because they couldn't both be princesses! It was super cute and highly entertaining! We actually had to have a discussion as to why they could both be princesses...at the same time. They could be different ones, or the same ones, it doesn't really matter. Especially, as they will soon learn, I am the princess...
