6 year olds are the sweetest
May. 19th, 2010 05:52 pmLast day of school today, Casper came home with a book of stories each of her classmates wrote about her. Several people mentioned that she likes or loves Thomas. The story by Thomas goes:
"[Casper] is a super friend because she is nice. She is also pretty. She is a good friend. She is the one I want to marry. Me and her have a lot in common. We both like ice cream and cake, and stuff like that. She is invited to my birthday party. She is a good friend. I also lllooovvveee her! She is my most granted girl friend."
It was illustrated with a picture of them getting married. He's in a top hat.
He's actually a total doll, and his parents are great. If they still love each other in 20 years, I will be all for the wedding. And I will trot out this paper to embarrass them with.

I think I've found a blog by a woman who was my best friend ca. 1978-1982. We didn't keep in touch much after I moved away, since I was only 9 (she was 18 months older), and she lost both her parents in short order and moved in with a sister (she had a bunch of rather older siblings - I think she was a menopause baby). I've Facebooked her to ask if it's her. I don't think I'd have gotten in touch except via Facebook - it seems to make this sort of thing a little easier than email would be. I'm not sure that I expect anything even if it is her - but it's nice to read the blog and see that she seems to be a sensible person, the sort of person I might even choose as a friend as an adult, and she can use grammar and spell and so forth.
So now my head is all full of playing with her Barbies and watching General Hospital with her mother and talking on the phone after I moved about who we though was cuter on CHIPS, John or Ponch.
