Making Progress

Today Emma has a playdate after school with a friend from Kindergarten. This morning while she was getting ready she remembered where she was going. And then she paused and got a worried look on her face. For those of you who know Emma well, you know that she has a paralyzing fear of dogs--ok almost ALL animals. SO I knew what was coming next. I said "Does Gionna have a dog?" And much to my surprise she said "Yeah, but she told me it was just a little one." So I said, "Do you want me to talk to Gionna's mom about it this morning when I take you to school?" She said, "No, I'll just tell them when we are walking to her house, and maybe she could put it away." PROGRESS!!!
