We have had such a fun day of play today! (Like all that rhyming?)
We met our friends Amy and Mary Claire at the Olive Branch library for story time. Grandma and Peggy take her there all the time, but this was my first time. Helen Grace pranced around and showed us where everything was, and man, they have a great kids’ section! They have probably 50 puppets and a great puppet stage, a claw-foot bathtub, a playhouse, and touch screen computers. For story time, they have a whole other room complete with craft tables. HG was in heaven. They read stories and sang songs about turkeys and Thanksgiving and then made their own little turkey. We had such fun exploring the library with Amy and Mary Claire!
Afterward, we took lunch to the Coats’ house to play with Ann Maxwell. HG was recovering from a meltdown when we arrived (she pulled her arms out of her carseat straps and refused to put them back, even with the threat of a spanking) and was in great need of a nap. But she straightened right up and turned on the smile when Ann Maxwell came bounding to the door to greet us. (Praise the Lord!) After they managed to get down a few bites of lunch, they took off to AM’s room to play and didn’t come out for forever! Needless to say, HG zonked out within five minutes of leaving their house- ha!
AM wanted to share a seat with HG, although HG was less than thrilled about her idea. :)
