Ruby has a best bud named Emma, and they've known each other since they were toddlers (in fact, I remember when Emma was born). The girls have played together countless times, and a couple summers back we took a little vacation with Emma's family. It's a lovely friendship.
This year - for the first time - the girls are in the same school. And while they don't have the same homeroom teacher, they still manage to cross paths throughout the day and often sit together at lunch and find each other at recess. Good good good.
Yesterday I was talking to Ruby after school and realized she was not wearing the shirt that had been laid out for her, but rather the exact same shirt that she wore to school on Monday. When questioned about this she had a very simple explanation: She and Emma both had this shirt and decided on Monday that they should both wear it on the same day: Tuesday. So my daughter, who has more clothes than me and my closest friends combined (thank you, Auntie Jenny), went to school on Monday and Tuesday in the exact same outfit.
I told her this could not happen again, but then also asked if Emma did, in fact, wear her shirt on Tuesday. Ruby's face lit up like a firework and she responded with a resounding, "YES!"
