Playing with our friend Mira

Mira's mom works in a little store right by the playground.  Mira plays outside each morning before going to school at 3pm.  The school system is set up in two sessions each day.  A morning session (7am to 12pm) for older students and a later session (3pm to 7pm) for the younger students.  Mira and Lydia have been playing together regularly.  Mira is 6 years old.  She is teaching Lydia to play pretend.  They have birthday parties and cook cakes and dinner for me and other adults around.  Lydia is getting the idea and is starting to pretend to eat the pretend food they make.  It is fun to watch them at play.
