Warming up

Avery and I are both on vacation for the next 10 days, and we started our time together with a warm and sunny playdate at a friend’s house. It had been awhile since Avery had gotten together with these particular girls (whom we used to see on a much more regular basis), and she was a little shy and clingy – kinda her MO – when we first arrived. At one point she pulled me aside and said she wanted to play with the girls but was feeling shy, and I told her I understood. “It sometimes just takes you a little time to warm up,” I explained. “Oh,” she said (taking my words literally and thinking of the temperature), “I’m actually really hot right now.”
