Old Friends?

Gwen had a great time helping us put out all of our Fall decorations. The only problem was that she thought some of them were her personal friends, and kept moving them around and playing with them- no matter how many times we told her they weren't toys.

One afternoon I was making lunch while Gwen was quietly playing. I was deep in thought until I heard her say, "Mom, will you take a picture of us together?" I looked up and there she was, with the scarecrow (that she moved once again), ready for her photo to be taken. She even had her arm around him, waiting patiently for me to get the camera out. Of course I obliged.

Oh, that is too cute! It really does look like her personal friend. :)

I love the photo with her "friend". Gwen is so thoughtful and usually thinks of others, except when she is insisting and/or reasoning things she thinks she needs to do, not do, or wants something. I suppose on some level, I do the same thing.
