Friends!

It had been a while since the girls had had friends over. When a say a while, I mean like a couple of months. That's a long while for us!

This is Jada, Blaine, and Bailee. Bailee and Blaine have too been together since they were babies, like a year old I think. Jada is Bailee's younger sister. Their mom was coming with me to a Ladies Night Out at church, which had childcare so Blaine came along to see the girls.



This is Madison, Blaine, Phoebe, and Catrina. Madison and Blaine are in 5K together. How two girls so sassy and bossy ever make it in one class without killing each other I don't know, but they are the best of friends. Phoebe and Catrina are in the same 2nd grade class. Catrina was home schooled until this year. Her mom is very protective of her. It has been a lot of adjustment for Catrina to attend public school. I have been very proud of Phoebe for including Catrina in things with the other girls. At recess she makes sure Catrina is not left out. Sometime Catrina picks Phoebe to go with her when she has her guidance counselor visits. Catrina came to Phoebe's 8th birthday party and spent the night. That was a huge step for Catrina and we were all very proud of her. We try to get them together some outside of school.

We lucked up that the ice cream truck came by while they we out playing. That was a nice treat!
