Doodles had a playdate today with a friend who’s six month younger, and therefore who has another year before she goes to kindergarten. On the car ride today on the way home from camp:
Doodles: Next year I got to kindergarten.
Friend: But we can still have playdates, right?
Doodles: Oh, yes. Lots and lots and lots of playdates.
Friend: Good.
Doodles: Maybe we can have double playdates! With you and my new kindergarten friends.
Me: That could be nice! Introduce F. to some new people.
Doodles: Yeah! [pause] There’s only one problem.
Friend: Yeah?
Doodles: By the time I’m in kindergarten, I may not remember you anymore.
