the games they play
These little girls are new-ish friends…they met at church and have been fast friends since their first night together. Today after lunch while their parents were chatting and eating…they were scheming. And after MUCH laughter and giggles they made an announcement…”We’ve prayed about it” they squealed in unison. “We’ve been praying for a playdate.” The parents looked at each other and then back at 4 little girls waiting with baited breath. How could I say no?
A few minutes later they were all snuggly belted into our car and headed home for hours of girly play. Their favorite game? FREAKY FRIDAY of course! They were barely through the door of our house before they were sneaking off to the bathroom to switch clothing with each other. Anna became Claire…Julia became Ava…it was all such a whirlwind of dress swapping and hair bow switching I nearly got confused myself. Then they spent the next few hours laughing hysterically as they called each other by their own names.
Oh to be a little girl once more….
