the little things

Today I took my favorite girl to see "Barney & Friends". She was insanely excited, and it rubbed off. We got dippin' dots, and cotton candy, and some souvenirs. She conned me into getting her a magical light-up wand, and a toy 'for Lucas'. I use the 'for Lucas' in quotes because that was simple a line. It turns out *she* always knew that that second souvenir, Baby Bop, was all for her. I forgave her because she won me over. She won me over when at intermission she looked up at me as we walked to the bathroom and said "Mommy, thank you for a fun day with Barkey." When I told her the show wasn't over, that there was, in fact, MORE Barney, the eyes lit up and she nearly tripped trying to run back to her seat!

And this is the excitement at seeing Barney back on stage:
