We were supposed to have a play-date/cooking-date today, with one of my best friends, Jeane, and the little girl she nannies, Annie. Every time we have tried to schedule this particular date, one of the four children involved has gotten sick. So I wasn’t too surprised to get the phone call this morning that Annie had a bad cold.
My girls were brokenhearted. They had been talking about this playdate all weekend. I was pretty brokenhearted myself. Jeane and I were going to make my favorite meal, Cheddar Potato Soup in bread bowls, to serve to my family and to Annie’s family. I am still going to make the soup (and take pictures and post about it), but the girls just couldn’t let go of the dream, “When’s Annie coming?”
Fortunately, playdoh heals all wounds. At least it does when you’re two.
