A couple of months or so ago Alice asked me if she could sit in the back seat of the van. I told her that she was too young because we would have to move her booster seat back as well. Alice wanted to know when she wouldn’t need the booster seat and was not happy when I told that she was required to have it until she was 8 years old.
However during our trip to Chicago we had Uncle Evil and Aunt Nong in the middle seats so Alice was moved to the back seat. She liked this very much. After we returned we didn’t have the energy to move her seat back up (yes, we’re that lazy). As a result Corwin spent a few days riding in a middle seat which was apparently preferable to sitting by Alice when it wasn’t required. At some point though Alice’s seat was returned to its natural location. I would suspect Corwin but I can’t imagine him being that pro-active.
