Tea for Two

Kate has always, her whole life, been great at playing independently. I really don't think she's ever asked me to play with her. (Don't get me wrong, I have played with her! But when I'm doing something she is always content to play on her own.) The past 2 days, as soon as I have put Sawyer down for his nap, Kate starts telling me she is bored and has no one to play with. So I told her to go set her table and when Sawyer woke up they could have a tea party. I even told her I would pop some popcorn for the occasion! She was so excited that she kept running back and forth and telling me about her progress and then put her ear to Sawyer's door to see if he was awake yet. When she finally heard him awake, she bounded in and loudly proclaimed, "We are having a tea party, Sawyer!" Then they both came running out of his room together toward the tea party.

These guys really are best buddies and I wouldn't have it any other way. They enjoyed their popcorn and pretend tea (which, Kate informed Sawyer, is really strawberry lemonade because the prophet says not to drink tea). It made for a good afternoon and a good distraction so I could mop the kitchen floor!
