I love my daughter.....


 

Beauty: (while setting the table all pretty for her brother’s bday dinner tonight-picks up phone and talks to her friend while setting it..)

Beauty: so is Justin Beiber going to accept you as a friend on Facebook????

Beauty: Carly Ray Jebson accepted you as a friend on Facebook????

Beauty: Oh so it is only 19 chances in 25 billion that you will win the contest and Justin Briber will accept you???

Beauty: That’s a lot of chances!!!!!!!! I think you will get in.


Beauty: No I am not allowed Facebook or email or a cell until end of Grade 6.

Beauty: No I am serious those are the rules in our house. I am serious.


Beauty: Yes I am serious! So in the meantime if JB chooses to befriend you on Facebook can you say hi for me and send a picture of me to him????


Beauty: Do you have a really, really good picture of me???? If you don’t my Dad took some of me skiing but you can’t really see my hair and face because I am wearing a helmet and mouth protector and goggles. Do you think he would still like that?


Beauty: Ok call me back and let me know if he accepts you as a friend ok? Not past 8pm though ok?


Beauty: Yes I am serious! Because…we have to all go to bed early tonight because we had a lot of late nights. Yes for real I have to go to bed at that time!


(so I hear all this and all I can think of is my head is..i love this kid..she is so cute..and the cutest part of all? That never once did she ask me to change our house rules, or bedtimes, or technology rules. That is how much she respects the rules of our home….does not even occur to her to ask for an exception on it. I sure hope it stays this way!!! Very unlikely but for the moment I am indulging in this little daughter of mine)
