So I had to break it to Sophie that Amanda Overmyer, her favorite idol, had been kicked off. She was laying in bed watching Curious George. I said, "Sophie, I have some bad news. Amanda was kicked off American Idol last night." Sophie smiles and says, "She can still sing though right, just not on T.V" I told her yes and she said okay. I guess she will need to find a new idol to cheer on.
Then we went to a playdate in the afternoon. It so happened that she turned shy and threw a fit, wanted to be held, and wouldn't even walk down the stairs where everyone was. Finally, I carried her down as well as holding Avery of course. Then she spotted it...a tank with something in it and they weren't fish. After having me ask what it was, it ended up being a tree frog.
Is my daughter shy now? No, she snaps out of her mood, picks up the frog and continues to play with it for the next two hours. The pictures show her in action and just how fearless she was with it!
