This sounds like a very productive day in little girl land.
Just perfect. And I'm guessing you didn't have a single thought the entire time about "purpose" or "loose ends." And also, glass elevators are way cool.
This sounds just about the best thing ever. (Also, extra points for Polly Pockets.)
These are the best days! I agree with Lisa...extra points for playing with the Pollys! That's all my granddaughter wants to play with at my house, too;)
If you think she could handle a bit of a drive, you both would always be welcome down here. Our house IS little girl land.
