Best Friends

Since the day Lila was born, she and Rowdy have been best friends.   They are always together.  Rowdy is not a perfect dog by any means, but he is so patient with her.
Here they are helping me cook
She is always covering him up, and trying to pat him to sleep...
and he will just lay there.
One day they were in her room, and she comes out and goes, "look, Mommy.  A ponytail!"

pants on my head, pants on my head

This is a story about a little girl named Lila Bug.  Lila Bug was a pretty little girly girl.  She had all the things that girly girls dream of...lots of jewelry, shoes, dresses.  But, what she didn't have was long hair.  She had thin, short hair.  So, being the crafty, creative little princess that she is, she came up with a plan.  "I'll put pajama pants on my head and pretend that I have long hair.  I'll get my awesome, wonderful  Mom to put in in ponytails and braid it, and I can swing it over my shoulder, and feel it on my back."  

True story.  My little bug wants me to put her pants on her head at night, so she can pretend she has long hair.  Yes, I am pretty proud of the creativity, but isn't that sad?!  She will walk around and say, "I can feel it on my back".  I told her that if she would start eating her veggies she will have long hair, but she's staying content with the pants on her head.
