A tea party at 4 p.m. on a rainy day? Why yes, thank you very much! We spent most of the day bouncing off the walls, so this was a welcome chance to get out of the apartment and play with friends. The girls are really fun to watch with all their personalities (plus!) on display. Elisa didn't like Birdie tapping her on the head, so she waited about 3 minutes and then tapped her back. Vindictive much? I guess it's all par for the course, but I don't know whether to scold or laugh sometimes. At least Ella is the calm one. Even with her shrieking and clamoring for more "banana cake," she was happy to host and never got grabby. Elisa on the other hand has never met a toy that wasn't hers. Sigh. Of course they all wanted to hang out in the cozy kitchen instead of the roomy living room with all the toys. What is it about kids that they always flock to the one spot you want them out of? I guess it's nice to see that they all do it. And really, that's what playdates are about. Seeing that you are not alone in the craziness. Now that--and a cup of tea--I can savor.
