List Maker

Last week as I was preparing Maysoon to take her to the doctor’s office, Jenin requested that I bring her back one of the sugar free lollipops that they keep at the front desk.  Considering she had been behaving particularly well while me and Maysoon were sick, I agreed.

Getting Maysoon dressed in her bedroom, Jenin called out from the kitchen table asking how to spell “pink”.  I proceeded to yell out ” p i n k” without thinking anything of it.  Since she’s learned to write her letters, she continually asks me how to spell certain words during random parts of the day.

I came to gather my purse and such when I found this:

Jenin: (in Arabic) “I wrote you a list so that you don’t forget which lollipop I want.”

    Seriously, this made my day. A classic example of kids imitating their parents. I'm constantly making lists. I think I might even have a list of my lists somewhere.

    I'm glad you all enjoyed this as well. 🙂
