If at first you don’t succeed…

Increase the numbers!

So we heard the other day about Skadi’s new best friend, Linda. The key point to take home regarding Linda is that SHE does not have to go to school every day. Linda told her mommy that she didn’t want to go to school anymore and so Linda gets to stay home every day and do nothing.

Well that creative tactic didn’t work so well in trying to convince me not to take her to preschool.
So this morning I was introduced to Lala.

Lala also doesn’t have to go to school and also gets to stay home. This means that Lala gets to go play with Skadi’s best friend, Linda, ALL the time. And poor Skadi misses out.

Meet Linda

Skadi announced today that she has a new friend. After a bit of a pause, she told us that her friend's name is Linda.

Linda doesn't boss her around like some friends do. (She has been fast friends recently with a new kindergartener who apparently friends the younger kids so she has someone to boss around. But Skadi's teacher said that she is getting wise to this and the friendship is on the rocks.)

Linda has long hair down to her toes.

Linda was sick this past weekend. Poor girl.

Linda doesn't want to go to school anymore and HER mommy said that she could just stay home.

Linda also has big feet.

And long arms that hug Skadi really good cause they are so long.

Linda lives next door to us also and Skadi can go over there and play whenever her brother is mean to her.

Linda's mom makes her hair beautiful every single day.
