weekend at burnley’s

we had our 4 year old niece, burnley, for a few days while her parents celebrated their 10 year anniversary in the caribbean. we swam and watched fireworks, ate at ‘chick-a-lay’ and painted our toes a delicious shade of glittery pink. we went to starbucks and the bookstore and  made paper art with supplies we picked up from the local scrapbook store. we had a picnic in the front lawn and a dance party in the bathroom. we played 73 rousing games of fancy nancy (her pick) and 1 game of sequence (my pick). she informed me that ‘shineese food is gross’ and ‘uncle chris is berry silly.’ and she taught me that all tough decisions are made simple by four little words. eenie, meenie, miney and mo.

I pictured such a small girl holding a short latte when I read you went to Starbucks. It made me chuckle, then reality hit and of course she didn’t get coffee but juice…organic healthy juice. What a “fwippin’” cute girl!

Oh my. How precious. But then again, I’m partial to little girls with room stopping smiles. You guys can hang out with Caroline any time for us to go away for the weekend, or even a night. Seriously though, the next time you come over you need to come before she goes to bed. I want her to know you two.
