Allison and her friend Evelyn have been having sleepovers since they were two years old. Allie stayed at Evelyn’s (under the supervision of super-mom, Carrie, of course) when we had Nicole, so we did a trial run before the big day to make sure everything would go smoothly. It did. Since then, the girls have begged us bi-weekly for more, more, and MORE sleepovers. And Carrie and I have obliged. Because if there is one thing better than a night off from bedtime duties, it’s having a live-in playmate for your social butterfly. Nobody ever begs me to play barbies on sleepover nights.
Last night, we had the great pleasure of having Evelyn at our house. The girls colored in Allie’s My Little Pony coloring book and made christmas cookies with play-dough. They shared a bowl of Teddy Grams while they sat next to each other watching a movie. They played pretend, they played dress up. They painted their toenails purple, their favorite color aside from pink. And then they got BFF tattoos.
Here’s to little girls: may their friends always be forever, and may their tattoos always be temporary.
