Jackson's Playdate with Violet Affleck
It may be "uncouth" for me to walk up to a celebrity and invade their privacy while they're trying to have a normal life, but when my kid is playing with their kid it's not completely inappropriate. Today at the Children's Museum, Jennifer Garner walked in with her daughter, Violet. I was completely enamored--watching her out of the corner of my eye everywhere she went. It's not like a "girl crush" thing, I just get giddy when I have these celebrity sightings. This was my biggest one yet and she was standing right by my friends and I for an hour! We watched our kids playing and Jackson was playing near Violet and suddenly, they were alone on their side of the sand table. They exchanged a few looks and toys, finally Jackson grabbed a toy from her. Oh the horror! At least it didn't haul off and hit her with the metal watering can. A few minutes later Sydney was crawling in the middle of the area and I picked her up. Jennifer asked me how old Sydney was and I told her, then she commented that Sydney was cute and continued talking to her sister. I said thank you and thought it would be a little weird if I talked to her about Violet since if it were anyone else and I suddenly knew their child's name and approx. age it would be weird. Anyway, I wish Jackson would've attempted to make friends...then there would've been an opportunity to chat. What in the world would I chat with her about?? Later I saw her on her cell phone...was she talking to Ben?!
