Cleaning up before bedtime
Posted by Shannon on 01 Nov 2001 | Tagged as: heard
“I’m all done picking up toys!”
- Emily, with enthusiasm but not accuracy
“I see toys over here that need to be picked up.”
- Mama, trying not to sound tired and frustrated
“What else do you see?”
- Emily, after repeating her “all done” speech three more times
“Emily, I see a little girl that I love very much.”
- Mama, who was about to yell and decided it wasn’t worth it
“You know what I see, Mama? I see a big person that I love very much.”
- Emily, making Mama very glad she didn’t yell!
