today called for a play date! emma's friend kelsey {and her mommy too!} joined us for some afternoon fun. both girls had gone nap-less which is always fun....but despite this, they had a great time. kelsey's mom, jen, is one of the senior heme/onc fellows in my program and one of the nicest human beings i have ever met. {she just so happened to be my chief resident when i was pregnant with emma....kelsey had been born just 6 months before so she and i became first time mommies at nearly the same time!} she's a great mommy, a fabulous doctor, and a wonderful sounding board for me as we simultaneously travel this amazing mommy-doctor journey and strive to find a daily balance between all the roles in our lives.
there was laughter, lots of jumping, dress up and pretend. both girls were clearly tired since they had chosen to evade naptime (go figure) but we got away with only a few minor tiffs. emma is learning to share her toys and has a ways to go (just ask her brother!)....but made some concessions in the end :) kelsey was a champ and it was only appropriate that she left the house dressed in emma's wonder woman costume.
