premise: I wear many hats ... The usual kerfuffles were made even more fun by the tired and temperamental three year old flower girl , my new DIL 's daughter . She was having none of this nonsense and kept running away down the path , or alternately Velcro - ing herself to DIL 's leg . Why did the daughter in laws child stick to the daughter in laws leg ?
hypothesis: The flower girl is at a wedding , an exciting event , the child is overwhelmed and seeking mom for comfort .
