On Tuesday I went shopping with Elianna and Joshua at Superstore. Ellie was quite the sight that day, wearing the tacky white sundress pictured above (which she loves), a white sun hat, and white sandals. Suddenly she began to lag behind the cart, and when I turned around I noticed her stop in her tracks, bend over at the waist, and make some little motions with her hands on the floor. She ran a couple more steps and then repeated the same motions. "Watcha doing, Ellie?" I asked.
"Catching squirrels," was her reply. Playing along, I suggested that she put the squirrels in her pocket. So she did.
Several minutes later we walked past an employee sweeping the floor. Ellie stopped to stare for a bit. When the lady looked up, Ellie very loudly and clearly declared, "I have a SQUIRREL in my pocket!" The lady was quite enamored and Ellie had made a fast friend. Again.
