A New Era

Today is a bittersweet day. I believe it is time to retire the little blue bathtub.

Things were going as normal during Harper's bath this morning. Ducky was playing kindly with tiny turtle. Mr. Frog had his usual attitude but nothing out the ordinary. All of the sudden, the bath princess herself, decided it was time to stand. She leaned forward, grabbed the end of the tub, and pulled herself into a downward dog position (basically standing with her hands on the ground for those who don't know yoga terms). Unbelievable. She has proven no feat of the sort until today. Little blue tub might have seen his last day in Harper's lifetime...he is just not equipped to handle such acrobats. Harper had a good conversation with her tub animals, explaining that they will all be losing a good friend, but that their options are almost endless in the giant white tub that awaits them. I think they took the news well. The transition might be scary, but rest assured that Harper will be there to ease their fears. What a monumental day. It will not be forgotten.

Harper also told me she would like me to start parting her hair to the left instead of the right. She said a left part looks better with the shape of her face. Geez.
