Today we were in the car...a song came on WFRN, and part of the words are "be the Love of my Life". I am trying to teach Anya the REAL words to her favorite songs...so I was singing 'love of my life' very deliberately. This was a great launch into a "love of your life" conversation.
After explaining to her what that phrase means, the conversation went something like this:
"so, Anya - who is the Love of YOUR life"
fully expecting her to say Mommy and Daddy, she said...
A: "um, God and Jesus"
I might not be the best Mom in the world, and I know I fail more than I get gold stars for the day...I know her teacher doesn't think I work enough with her on reading, spelling and English...but I think we're doing the really important things right.
...and thanks, WFRN - for allowing these kinds of teachable moments.
