Saturday we had a fun day. We went to the park, N's gymnastics class, the children's museum, and then to our favorite Mexican place, A___ (sorry DM, but soon!) for dinner.
After we ate, we walked out by the little fountain and N (4 and 3/4s) and K (30 months) each got a penny to throw into the fountain and make a wish. There was one couple outside eating. They were kind of sitting close to the fountain. As we walked up, I hoped the girls didn't interupt them. Both K and N were being fairly calm and quiet (unusual for them) as they walked up for the fountain.
I handed N her penny and she said, in a sweet soft-spoken way, "I wish ...... for a kitty... a little kitten of my own."
The woman sitting nearby had turned to watch and she said, "Awwww..." She looked at me like I would be the World's Worst Mother if I didn't run out and buy N a kitty right then.
Then it was K's turn and she said, also sweetly and softly, "I wish for a little kitty too."
Another "Awwww" from the woman and now she looked like she might cry. Even though it wasn't any of the woman's business, I explained how we already had a cat and how we would get them a kitty when the time was right. Just so the woman didn't think I was horrible and mean.
Yea, they were being cute. Very very cute.
MWH and I discussed just how cute it was when we got back to the car. I told him that N and K probably made the woman want children-little girls. He agreed and then he one upped me. He said the fountain interaction had probably caused her to ovulate right then and there. He was probably right.
