Getting ready for the day.
Edee: Mommy, do I look cute?
Me: Yes, you look cute.
Edee: And den everyone will see me and say, "Oh dat girl is so cute".
Me: Uh....well....okay, so it's fun to look cute, but that's not what's important. It's more important to be kind and loving and be like Jesus....
Later that day we are heading on a train downtown. I see Edee looking out the window....only to notice she's admiring her own reflection in the window. Little head tosses and batting eyelashes and all.
How did we get to this point, and how do we make it stop?
Oh noodles.
"Edee" and "Chicken" are nicknames for my two little rascals. The names originated from how my daughter would pronounce both her own and little brother's name when she first started talking. They've stuck. Chicken may live to regret that someday....
I'm so glad a is not the only one!
