Of course they do, especially when there are so many cool ones lying around the ball field. Sure she spends the first half of the game standing by the fence saying "Hi Hunter!!" over and over again until he acknowledges her and then randomly from her little pink lawn chair yells "Go Parky's" which is meant to be Go Sparky's but if the games almost over and the snacks have run out you'd better believe she is on the hunt for something fun to play. "Sorry Em I didn't bring any coloring books this time" I told her searching for something fun for her.
I had to laugh at myself. Something as simple as that hadn't even crossed my mind. Duh MeKell just because she is a girl she can still play with sticks and rocks and bugs in the grass too, not just her dolls and coloring books. Sort of scolding myself for being so "gender specific" I happily watched her have fun with her stick. Of course after awhile the novelty had worn off and then she dropped it in the grass, ran back over to her pink chair and flopped down dramatically. "I tired" she said looking and me "I wanna paint nails" and suddenly we were back in girl world once again.
