Pinata Time

We went to a 5 year old's birthday party this evening. After the pizza and cake, he had a firetruck shaped pinata to break. Amara had her turn "at bat" - she had no clue how to even hold the bat. Granted, it was a full sized, heavy metal bat. But still... if she's her father's daughter, we'll have to work on that!

Anyway... once the pinata was popped, the kids scurried to pick up their candy. There were probably 200 pieces of candy in it, and maybe 12 kids. Amara came racing back to me all excited, "Mommy, look! I got two pieces!" And she was perfectly content with that.

I probably shouldn't have told her she could go back and get more. But it was nice to see her sweet, content little spirit, perfectly happy with two pieces of candy.
