Candy Necklace

So, we have some new friends. They have 2 children . A boy, 8 and a girl, almost 4. Both of which , by most standards are a handful, but sweet. We had a visit at our home and the girls shared a candy necklace with her. These are old familiar favorites to us, but she needed a little demonstration, since she had never seen one before. Her eyes got big in amazement as the girls pulled the stretchy necklace and bit off a sweet treat. Oh joy! Well, we had a late lunch with them this past Sunday,and another game of charades, since there is still a language barrier. As we sat conversing, the little girl lunged at Asher, teeth exposed and chomping, grappling for the pooka shell necklace that he was wearing. Asher could not understand why she was so intistent on getting his necklace. The mother laughed a little and explained that her daughter thought it was another candy necklace and was determined that Asher would share. We all had a pretty good roar. I still laugh now. It was quite a visual. Love to all.
