Julia's fifth birthday is coming up at the end of July. If it's after her birthday and before Christmas, every time she sees a toy that she'd like on TV, she says, I want that for Christmas. If it's after Christmas and before her birthday (even if it's December 27th), she says, I want that for my birthday.
Now that her birthday actually isn't that far away, we're starting to pay more attention to what she says she wants. The other night at dinner, she started talking about some drawing kit that she saw advertised and, of course said, I want that for my birthday, Mama, I do.
I told her, OK, maybe you'll get that for your birthday. Allie (otherwise known as the voice of reason/big sister/heartbreaker) had to speak up and say, Julia, you might not get what you're asking for as a birthday present. But Julia has a backup plan. She said, I'll get Daddy's phone and call Auntie Cat and she'll get it for me for my birthday.
I guess being one of three only nieces for Auntie Cat has it's advantages!
