What's up with Whatsit

Program, and shortness

Yesterday, Anna Claire was in a program. The whole second grade at her school did a show about "What I want to be when I grow up." Cute! The music teacher at her school always puts these shows on and does a fantastic job. Earlier in the week, she came home and said "I'm the littlest second-grader." Which I figured, because she was the littlest kindergartener, and she hasn't gotten busy growing since then, but I wondered what brought it up. When I went to the program, it hit me: they had lined them up according to height. It doesn't seem to bother her. Indeed, she plays the cute thing up to get what she wants. And it tends to work, especially on too-susceptible Daddy. God help us when she wants a car.
