Almost True
I was telling my mom today, about how Emily can be really good but she has a real naughty streak and has definitely entered the testing phase. She reminded me of this poem which made me laugh:
There was a little girl
with a little curl
right in the middle of her forehead.
When she was good
she was very very good
but when she was bad
she was horrid.
I wouldn't say that Emily was horrid but I thought the poem was quite apt.
Today, while at her grannies she stole grannies choccy biscuit when she wasn't looking! She also proceeded to do everything I asked her not to do.
Yesterday she hit a shop assistant on the legs (very bad and very embarrassing). I have no idea what that was about.
It's the first of many 'battles of wills' max. Who'll win? You or Em. Expect the big ones every seven years as Em becomes that more and more independent and pushes you to see how far the rules will bend. As each seven years passes, the battle gets harder - just try to look back on these first 'easy ones' and smile. By the way, Woz, Max is due her next battle in about 3 years - glad its your turn now!!!!!!!!!!
