watch out boys...

yesterday morning when I woke up, I found Lainey in her current favorite dress-up: bride, veil and all (although the veil is pretty makeshift - it's an old slip, but whatever. it works.) she stomped into my room all worked up, and proceeded to air her grievances about Romney: he wouldn't dance with her just how she wanted. She wanted her hands like so, and his like so, and he just wanted to hold both hands! gasp! I suggested compromise (dreaded word to a five year old) and here's what I got back:

L: I WILL NOT MARRY ROMNEY IF HE WON'T DO WHAT I SAY!

noted.

(this is an earlier and warmer-weather version of the bride/superhero combo, but you get the idea.)

Lainey is learning early the important qualifications for finding a future spouse. I love it. We had a great time sledding with you guys.

I deeply connect with Lainey. She and I are cut from the same crazy piece of cloth - will you let her come over and chat with me sometime...I would love to spend time with her (and Rom!) xoxo Whit

She's a smart girl. Learning life's important lessons early on - marry a man who does what you want.
