Current Mood: Playful

You’ll probably remember from my previous posts how much Clare LOVES Star Wars.  Well this morning she’s been busy playing in the living room happily listening to her mp3 player on her Cool Cat (no we didn’t buy her an mp3 player, it’s an old one of ours that we handed down to her after buying new ones for us).  I can’t even find any info on the Cool Cat - so they must not make them any more.  It’s this cute little pink cat that has sunglasses that change color and it bobs it head and taps it’s feet to sound and movement and has a speaker in it’s back.  You plug your mp3 player in and presto chango it’s a little boom box.  All of the music is stuff I listen to as well, so it works out well. 

Anyway, she has been busy playing while I’m out in the dining room doing my thing on the laptop.  I give her a 15 minute warning, and then she has to go get dressed.  You see, it takes her about 45 minutes to get dressed with all the screwing around and side tracking that happens in her little 5 year old brain.  I then tell her 5 more minutes.  She then asks me if I want to know what she’s playing.  I of course say sure.  She then tells me that she’s reenacting Star Wars with her dolls.  She has all of her Barbies lined up, and is using her Littlest Pets for R2D2 and C3PO the robots.  It just makes me laugh.  The things our kids come up with!
