My daughter had a sleep over this past Friday with her friend Ava (My good friend Kyla’s daughter). So beginning last Monday and every day thereafter Alani asked “Is today the day that Ava is coming over”. Everyday I replied “No baby, Friday”.  If we went to the store she asked “Can we get some juice for Ava?”  We go to the gas station and I hear…”Can we get Ava some candy?”  OMG! When I tell you that every single day she had some sort of question about Ava it made me wonder.  Is this really her best friend?  She plays with girls in the neighborhood.  She has friends a daycare.  She even has friends from church.  She NEVER mentions those people!  But Ava coming over Friday has the equivalent to Jesus coming back.  Seriously.  So Friday finally came and she says is Ava coming today?  “Yes!!! Today is Friday”  She looked so confused and said “I don’t want it to be today…I want it to be Friday!”  Needless to say, that was a 1/2 hour conversation!  She asked me if I loved Ava and I said yes I do.  She says “I love her too!”  I almost shed a tear.  Does someone who is 3 years old really know what love is? I do believe so.  When Ava arrived they gave each other the biggest hug!  The same type of hug that I give my best friend who lives in North Carolina.  Ava’s mom and I stood back in awe.  These little people are so amazing.
