| Jude hasn't yet noticed Lucy's arm around his shoulders. Give it 3, 2, 1... |
Jude's friend Lucy comes over every few weeks for a morning to play. Her parents are friends of ours, and the two of them used to go to daycare together almost full-time for a couple of years where they apparently bonded for eternity. Or at least until kindergarten. Whenever they see each other again, it's as if no time has passed.
Lucy is opposite from Jude in every way. She loves chaos, naughtiness, hugs with people other than her mama, cheap thrills and making messes. I think her influence will do him good, and I approve of each and every time she force-kisses him, puts her arm around him when he's distracted and can't fight her, and/or splatters something on the wall near him so that he can tell on her.
The other day as she was leaving he refused her advances to hug him and she put her face right up to his and raised her voice, saying, "BUT I'M LEAVING NOW!" (As in, don't you understand the significance of this moment?)
When we asked Jude who his best friend was, he said "Mommy". I will tell him he said this when he is 15. We then said, "What about Lucy?" He got a huge smirk on his face, giggled and said, "Yeeeeees", all drawn out as if he was relishing each letter in the word.

Oh.my.goodness. They are so cute together. And good for each other. Anyone who really knows Jude can especially appreciate how Lucy seems to fill in the cracks.
yep, my plan is to keep them at the BFF level for many years :)
Yes, there is a special smile when you mention Lucy. Good plan!
