The other night I took Cali out with me to Wal-mart to buy her a new chair. I found a Princess couch and Cali was quite excited about it, since it folded out and could be used as a bed. She told me that she wanted to moved into her room so she could sleep on it at night. She then agreed to only sleeping on it if she decided to nap during the day. So we put it into the cart and pushed it a little further down the aisle.
I then had the idea that I should let her sit in the couch to tell me if she would actually use it. So I put down in the floor and Cali took a seat. She stood up and then told me that she wanted a couch "without bricks in it". Am I ever glad I decided to try it before we brought it home!
So we didn't end up buying Cali a new chair but we did spent a long time in the Barbie isle. We oohed and awed over Barbie's various outfits and accessories, contemplating which Barbie would be fun to have.
At one point Cali pointed up and exclaimed "Look Mommy!". I looked up and saw a child's set of cleaning supplies. I agreed with her that it looked like a lot of fun and with it she could help me clean the house. She quickly corrected me and directed my attention to what she had pointed at one shelf lower... princess Barbie, and prince Ken with a sparkly horse... Shoot!
We had a great time together just the two of us.
On the way home in the van Cali said "I don't like family dates, I like Mommy and Cali dates."
I love my little girl!
