Puppy Love

I know that Lily has been hogging my blog posts recently, but I just could resist sharing this story. Lily has been doing swimming lessons for the past two weeks and Julianna and I watch from the observation room with the other parents. Today when I went in the mom I sat by asked me which child was mine. I told her mine was in the preschool class and her name was Lily. She looked at me and said, "Lily's yours?!" I thought to myself, uh oh! what has my daughter done to this person's child!!! Then she told me what had happened at their dinner table last night. Her son Jason said to her, "Mom, I have some bad news. I can't marry you anymore. I"m going to marry Lily." Awwww!! This makes me so happy. Not that I want Lily to be betrothed at such a young age, but I just am so happy that she is liked by her peers. She sometimes has trouble playing well with others, so it's nice to hear that some kids get a kick out of her. Jason told his mom that he liked Lily because she was nice and funny. YAY!!! Later in the conversation the mother shared with me that her son generally gravitates towards bold bossy little girls. I said, well, that's my daughter!! :)
