This evening, we had a family in our home which we just met. Their children are the same ages as our children, and so we excitedly told the children that they should get their toy room ready for guests, as they would be making new friends after dinner.
Chayce looked at me, with big sad eyes, and said, "Mommy, what happened to my old friends? Did they die?"
She was very concerned for her dear friends that she usually plays with, and I had to reassure her that Megan and Abby especially were OK, and that it's possible to make new friends without forgetting the ones you already have. While I was saddened at what she must have been feeling, I was also in awe at the great love she has for her friends, I can't remember loving anyone that much when I was three. What a wonderful little girl.
