Cole's first crush

Cole has asked to have his new friend Anna come over for a play-date this week, and the last couple of days Anna has been a preoccupation for him. Tonight, we went to the store and he mentioned to me on the way there that "Anna lives on that street." On the way back, he said "I wonder what Anna is doing now -- having a snack, watching TV, playing."

By the way, we had a parent-teacher conference today and, after a rough start to the year, Cole has settled in and is doing very well with all aspects of being a first-grader. After the last three difficult years, that was very good news indeed.
