We took a trip to Target last week to get the boys' school supplies. Hattie did great in the cart, cleaning it with the wipes they provide. Finally she got sick of that and wanted out. The boys were looking at folders so she went to the same area and soon enough she was loading the cart with Elsa and Anna folders!
We moved on to the lunchboxes. I had decided the boys could get a new lunch box. They were trying to decide and I could see Hattie out of the corner of my eye but I didn't really know what she was doing. The boys had thrown their lunch boxes in the cart when I see Hattie run/hopping (that's how she runs) over to me with, holding in front of her with both hands, a princess lunch box. She looked up at me with a big smile and big blue eyes and reached up to throw it over the cart, which was difficult since she isn't that tall. Then she looked at me with big eyes. I said, "Hattie, you don't need a lunch box, the boys need one for school." She just looked at me with sad little eyes like she didn't understand and I couldn't say no! How do you say no to that. She just wanted to be like her brothers and get a new lunch box. She doesn't know why they are getting one. So, we had to look through and make sure it was the one she really wanted and after a little debate, it was! Oh she just melts my heart with her innocence and sweetness.
