Three girls a-picinic-ing

Sylvia’s Toddler Time class at Monona Grove Nursery School ended in late April.  In order to keep up her socialization and to retain some structure to our week, I invited her friends Celia and Rayna to come play at our house on Tuesdays in May and early June.

The three girls had a topsy-turvy time…sometimes being a complete  delight (see pictures below) and sometimes (in Sylvia’s case, many times) experiencing high degrees of angst over the difficulties of three-year-old interactions.  I thought of it as having the opportunity to flex that “working-with-other-people” muscle.  No matter what, though, Sylva and I always looked forward to the days that our friends would come over to play.

Here’s some photos of our crew of three enjoying each other’s company on a warm May day.

First, picnicking and striking a pose:

I love these three of Rayna.

Here’s some cuties of Miss Celia Carina Jane

And my very own tutu girl.

Three friends.

These pictures here kinda make my chest hurt to look at.  Oh those three!

The maple tree out front had just flowered, and I lay on my back looking up through the new green flowers, soaking up spring.

Thanks, Kathy and Jessica, for sharing your amazing girls with me.  So glad that Sylvie has them as friends and I have you two as friends!!
