Well, yesterday was pretty great because we went to the grocery stores and bought a garden hose and sprinkler. I cleaned out the crappy old turtle sandbox that was lurking in the back corner of our yard, so we can use it as a tiny pool or sandbox or giant bubble solution receptacle or whatever. And Lucy had a fabulous time using the hose sprayer to pretend to be a firefighter.
Today she watched Blue's Clues. Watched The Price is Right. Pretended she was going to get married to Curious George but she didn't have any flowers! Crisis! So I told her I knew how to make some out of paper and we could do that after our errands.
Had to go to the DMV to get my SC driver's license. Before we left, she made her own driver's license with a little drawing of her head, her first name, and her license number (which just happened to be 10000, because ones and zeros are the only numbers she will write). While we were there, she did a really great job of sitting in her seat while I was up at the counter. She also got to see the process of dealing with a motor vehicle accident, as I hit a parked car pulling into my parking space at the DMV. Yep. Again, she did surprisingly well sitting in the car while her mom freaked out.
We got home and we made those flowers.
We watched some Kid Snippets.
She played with her Duplos and made a restaurant. Tigger is the chef. There's a very long line at the front desk, where you have to get a ticket to get into the restaurant. (This all looks suspiciously like the set up at the DMV.)
Dotty read her Alexander Who's Not (Do You Hear Me? I Mean It!) Going to Move. (A really great book to read after moving; might have been emotionally disastrous before moving.)
