101°F in Palo Alto. Hot enough to fry an egg. Too hot to bake. Perfect for making pretend pizza for Doll (and Mommy), rolling out sculpting clay, and splashing in water at the air-conditioned San Jose Children’s Discovery Museum.
I limited Carter to bringing just one toy friend into the museum, and today Doll made the cut. (Pink Bear and Holly Bear kept each other company in the car.)
A note about Doll: I have to give a shout out to Dolls Like Me, a source for “multicultural toys.” In other words, a place where I could buy my son a boy doll with brown skin. They now have a doll of a more famous biracial boy: President Barack Obama.
