Ok, day 1 of Keith's training and we have a melt down already. Man this just about killed me. Christina was taking her bath last night and just spontaniously burst into tears. I know, number one she is female and I do realize that this could be for absolutly no reason. Well, she wanted her Daddy! Of course I am trying to be as calm as I can. I just reminded her that this was just like Dad being at work. In her sweet little sad voice she squeaks out ... but longer! I almost lost it right then and there. All I can say is thank God for my Mother who swooped in while we were dresssing her and took over. Christina quickly got over her little spell. I talked her into a game of Princess UNO. It worked we taught Munnie how to play and that seemed to take her mind off of the situation.
The mind of a 5 yr old girl.
This was actually suppose to be posted on mine ... sorry. I never had a chance to move it.

How sad, but it is so sweet that she loves her daddy that much. God is with you!
ReplyDeleteGod love her. It's okay if you break down and cry with her! I've cried with my boys plenty of times when they cried over Todd being out of town! I think it makes us more 'human' to them. We are flawed creatures. It'll get easier. She does miss him, I'm sure, but it also could have been a case of the Monday blues. Everybody gets those...I'm still praying for you!!!! Love you!
