Promise, Mommy

Last night, after Elena's bath, she looked at me very seriously and said, "P'omise, Mommy, P'omise you alway' talk to me." "Of course, sweetheart," I replied, "I promise I'll always talk to you." Then she said, "P'omise, Mommy, P'omise you alway' listen to me." She was so very serious & intense, my eyes well up with emotion, wondering what would bring on such a conversation. "Of course I'll always listen to you. I promise." She then reached out her little hands, cupped my face so lovingly, and said, "P'omise, Mommy, P'omise you alway' do as I say!" I just about fell off my stool laughing! Sorry, honey, that's one promise I just can't make! But it was a good try! Dang, I love that kid!

  7. Good one!

    Today Felix asked me for a hug while we were shopping, "Mommy, hug?" Aww, I thought it was so sweet. So I leaned in to hug him and he wrapped himself around my neck and pulled his legs up in an attempt to eacape from the cart! Stinker!
