First Playdate!

How fun for our G-Bear, who went to play at a friend's house for the first time today!

  

Our preschool friend, MJ, invited G-Bear over to play.  Instead of coming home at noon as expected, G-Bear stayed until 3:30pm because the girls were having so much fun.  E-Bear and I didn't know what to do with ourselves, we missed her so much :)  But the delight on her face when she returned home said it all:  she had a great time.  

What a treat it is to get to witness little "take flight" moments like these in our children's lives.  Four years ago this week, G-Bear was a helpless hatchling cradled in our arms.  Now we can proudly watch as she makes friends and takes early steps out on her own.  Way to go, G-Bear!
