When we got back to the house Grace & Ella started playing w/ Grace's jump rope. Eva was dying to play with them, but she's not fast enough for them... they just run circles around her. But it was so sweet b/c when the dropped the jump rope (for something "better"), Eva slowly made her way over to it, & claimed it as her new item:-) You could see in her eyes how pleased she was w/ her new find. She wrapped the rope around her trying to figure out what made it so great that Grace & Ella would have wanted it... even though she wasn't sure what magic qualities it held she kept a tight grip on it.
Grace tried to come over & take it back, but one look from me & she let Eva keep it (Eva had it wrapped around her, I could see in Grace's eyes that she thoughtshe could give it a tug... send Eva spinning, get the jump rope & no one would be bothered... not happening!) So Ella decided she should come to the rescue for her new BFF Grace (they have an on-again, off-again love affair - love each other one minute & not the next - actually it's usually Ella who has the on-off but whatever) so Ella grabs the jump rope & runs to give it to Grace. Jess is yelling at Ella - telling her we don't do that, Ella said "but Gracie wanted it! It's hers!" Eva didn't cry, looked a little disappointed, but I guess - easy come easy go:-)
The girls finished the evening playing with the ball, something they could all do:-)
