Practice Flower Girl

For the last couple of weeks, we’ve been working with Mikaela to prepare her to be a flower girl in Corey and Monique’s wedding.  We’ve practiced walking slowly down the aisle (a roll of paper towels makes a nice substitute).  We practiced carrying a basket (without turning it upside down).  That’s a lot of practicing for a not-yet three-year-old.

Then, yesterday, Mikaela was talking to Grandma Mouse on the phone.  She was all excited to tell Grandma Mouse that she was going to be a "Practice Flower Girl."  And when I tried to tell her that she was going to be a REAL flower girl this weekend, she got angry.  "NO!  I’m PRACTICE FLOWER GIRL!" she insisted.  Hopefully, she won’t get angry when we line her up to walk down the aisle on Sunday.
