To follow up on yesterday’s post, one of the activities that
Princess S did, to entertain herself while mama was trying to clean, was to write
in her diary. Mind you, she
just turned 3, and she doesn’t know how to write. But, she took this very seriously and got out her pen, her
glue, scissors, and stickers.
Because, really, all those things are necessary, all the time.
I watched her sit down at her little table with pen in hand
and scribble in her diary as she dictated her daily life out-loud: “daddy went to work…
Mama breakfast… Savvy pre-school…”
She was genuinely talking about her life and day and writing it down as
best as she knew how.
And then Mama continued to nag her to pick up her things
until we finally all mopped together.
A little while after that she sat back down to continue ‘writing’ in her
diary and with pen in hand the scribbles began again in earnest. This time, all I heard her saying was “Clean, clean, clean,
clean….” in her little voice. I
am a little concerned that she is taking this Cinderella thing seriously...
"Clean, clean, clean, clean" |
