Fiora hates Dora

Miss Heidi (also Aunt Heidi) shared some overheard conversations between Fiora and Lucy at preschool where Heidi teaches them.

Lucy: Fiora, why are you so mean to me all the time?
Fiora: I'm not being mean to you today.
Lucy: Oh yeah, ha ha.
Fiora: But don't sit by me today.
Lucy: OK, why can't I sit by you?
Fiora: Because I'm going to sit by someone else.
Lucy: Are you going to sit by Molly?
Fiora: Oh yeah, Molly.
Lucy: Oh.
Fiora: Actually, you can sit by me today, just don't tell me about when you were a baby.
Lucy: OK, I won't tell you anything about "when I was a baby."
Fiora: OK, then you can sit by me.

Heidi then told me about conflicts that ensued during preschool, apparently Lucy and Fiora argue more than they should during class, and Fiora shut Lucy's fingers in a drawer that caused some drama. But they walked out of class holding hands and laughing and are currently at our house playing mountain bears dressed up like princesses. Those two are quite a pair, Fiora seems to dominate Lucy's already dominant personality.

Lucy: I love Dora. Do you love Dora?
Fiora: No, I hate Dora.
Lucy: Oh, I hate Dora too.
