This one was just too good to pass up.
At one point during our time at home yesterday, Ava wanted to go outside and look at the rain. That happened to coincide with the students getting out of the nearby high school for the day, so we sat for a bit and watched the kids walk by in the drizzle. G.G.’s been wanting a picture of Ava with her pumpkins, and I thought this might be my last chance. A lot of the kids were looking up at Ava on the porch and smiling at her, and she finally turned to me and asked, “Why are they looking at me?” I took a long gander at her striped pants, multi-colored sweater buttons, and polka dot mouse hat, and said, “Because you’re so cute.” She seemed satisfied with that answer.
