Navigating the hilly terrain of motherhood

This time, when Grace asked if she could do some stamping while I was putting Tess in bed, I said: “Sure – just don’t stamp your face.” Of course, she replied, “Why not?” And I made up some excuse about how she might get ink in her eyes or her mouth and it would be bad for her. Of course, she did it anyway – stamping her lips this time too, just because I specifically said not to. So, next time she asks me if she can do some unsupervised stamping, I’m going to say: “Sure, do whatever you want!” And I bet she’ll draw a picture instead.
