….we’ll go to the Children’s Museum.
Aaron’s in Europe again and the weather is crazily hot. With a long weekend looming ahead of us, I decided to take Elayna to the Children’s Museum. It had been almost a year since we’ve gone and I think she missed it.
While she used to spend endless amounts of time painting their paper-mache castle or hiding in the toddler room, she now scampers unafraid through the climber of figures things out in the ball room. It is fun to see her evolution; she’s grown so much physically but mentally as well!
Socially, she’s such an only child. She ignores younger children, follows around older children, and whines with people don’t do what she wants. She’s testing a lot of boundaries on how bossy or argumentative she can be to me and negotiates on nearly everything. But I love how she talked this girl into peddling her around for quite some times – E does have some persuasion skills! And at one point she introduced me to her new friend, a little girl who proceeded to run off (so the relationship was short lived). But I love how E is connecting to people, recognizing familiar faces, and striving to make friends. It’s cute.
So all in all, we made it through our weekend without Aaron and are doing alright. With some pool time and a few rented movies, hopefully us two girls will survive…
