Why shouldn’t kids be the center of attention? Especially in families with more than one child; it’s hard enough to get your share of attention. I’ve just never understood why she was against it.
My 3-year old granddaughter got a hula-hoop over Easter. Family and friends were over, the house was busy and my daughter had relocated to the back bedroom to nurse her baby when she heard some noise in the other room — like maybe her daughter was making a mess — and decided she better check.
This cutie girl, with hula hoop in hand, beamed up to her mom and announced, “there’s more seats available.” My daughter looked around the room at the sofas and chairs, found an audience of family and friends, and yes, joined them, in the available seating.
Now, I think it’s just dang cute. And I recall my daughter doing the same — a little dance to the Little Mermaid for Auntie Diane and family. She grew up and out of that stage, but it was fun and so child-like. Those are moments I cherish.
And what about this face? I can’t help but giggle.
