Dear Zoe - You are turning into a very particular little girl. You like things YOUR way and you have not quite mastered the art of compromise. One of the traits that you have developed (and possibly inherited from your mama) is your extreme dislike of being dirty. Or eating things that are burnt. Or broken. Or doing anything remotely messy.
We had your friend Christopher over this weekend and he was happily playing in the dirt and eating mac and cheese (not at the same time, of course)- two things that you would NEVER consider doing. The moment dirt or chalk or crumbs pollute your dainty little hands, you start waving them, telling me "Yuck! Yuck!".
We were at the park behind our new house today and it is basically one giant sandbox, something that you are NOT fond of. A few grains of sand got in your sandals and you stopped dead in your tracks, started flapping your arms, yelling "Mama, yuck! UP!!!" I thought this was the end of this park for us, until you discovered a water fountain that you could wash your hands in, one of your FAVORITE past times. OCD, much, little girl?
"Don't you make me tell you again, mama- NO burnt chips!"
"Stop with the photos!"
xoxo, the mama
