Heavenly Talk
This is how Sienn's weekened has been so far... For yesterday, piano in the morning, a show with J at the Children's theater, a birthday party for P at the Science Center afterwards, and a dinner with Rachel's family in the evening... At the end of the day, She talked all of us into a sleepover at Rachel's house.
This morning I rushed to get the two girls for a brunch at the Golden Griddle. There she blurrted out, "I don't like to go to the Chinese school this afternoon..." And this was what this Mama had to say: "young lady, you do what you like to do and you do what you DON'T like to do. How could you always do what you like to do? Uh?! That must be in heaven. And the heaven doesn't even exit, according to my record." The nearly-6-year-old was silent. The nearly-12-year-old smiled. And I felt much better. See, I don't just spoil my daughter. I also talk about heaven and limits.
