Ella, the eternal extrovert, says she doesn't understand why people want to be alone. Alone with your friend? Sure! All by yourself? Why? We've been trying to explain this concept to her, especially lately, after a couple of grueling weeks of parenting, where either Pat or I just needed to get out of the house by ourselves for a bit.
Tonight, on the way home, she says "Mom, I DO like to spend time by myself!"
"Oh yeah?"
"Yeah! Its good to be by yourself so you can be quiet and just think....about planning parties and stuff!"
She's nothing if not predictable!
