Like My Mother Does

During the Summer, Macy goes to daycamp. She loves it, particularly because they swim nearly everyday. Today was no different, I picked her up at the pool but this time I chose to stay for a while so she could swim longer. I got her a snack & she ventured over to a nice loungechair where a friend soon joined. They talked about various stuff in the day while I people watched with my eyes & listened to them converse with my ears. Periodically I asked them questions & acknowledged their conversation. Soon, as another friend passed I heard sweet Macy say "Look at Jack's hair. It's crazy!", followed by much laughter among the two girls. It was quickly met by Macy's friend with "Oh! Mrs. Walkerrrrr, Macy has a crush on Ja-aaack!" I kind of grinned without hesitation or distress and said, "She sure does, doesn't she."

Macy looked at her friend and said "Trinity, you don't have to try to embarass me. I tell my Mom everything!" I think Trinity was surprised because she said "Oh? You do?" Mace replied "Yeah, I tell her everything about me. I love her. She's like my best friend but she's not my friend, she's my Mom."

Let's just hope it stays that way!
