hard questions


It's that time of hard questions, again. Sari is definitely growing up. Yesterday on her way home from school she proceeded to tell us that when she was a baby her mommy pushed her in the stroller. I agreed and added that when she was a baby her daddy carried her in his arms too. That seemed to upset her, as she protested: "no, mommy carried me in a stroller". I confirmed that fact, and repeated my addition as well. She protested, and said that she only has one daddy. My radar went off, as I detected conflicting information being supplied, but i was a little confused at what exactly wasn't adding up in her mind, and what the cause of distress. I calmly asserted that both statements are, in fact, true, and promised to show her pictures of her when she was a baby when we get home.
When we got home C pulled some of the old baby pictures up on his phone and she was able to see herself in daddy's arms. Moral of the story is from the Walmart tshirt: "Love always wins".
