During dinner tonight, Julia quietly mused, "Hmmm, not bad at all." I figured that this would be the best compliment I would get out of her (and it is better than most if the dinnertime commentary that goes on around here) so I tucked it in my pocket of Nice Things the Kiddos Say. (Needless to say, it's a pretty small pocket.) Not a minute later, she looked up at me and said, "You should tell me how to make this so that I can make it when I'm a grown-up."
Oh, how my beaten-down heart soared. I guess I have a few tricks up my sleeve after all.
P.S. I am pretty sure that this isn't age appropriate, But Lexa is already wielding crayons and writing on things she isn't supposed to...the girls' desks, the play kitchen, and Julia's homework just to name a few. Oh my, I hope that this isn't any indication of the years to come.
