"So, is she a Daddy's girl or Mommy's pet?" I've been asked this question a number of times, and I always have to think before I answer. Why? Because I always have no clue. Unless they say, "Aww, look at her! Has to be a Daddy's girl, right?" "Absolutely!", I say.
Kids are funny, unpredictable. San too is. In the morning, she is all Mommy's. Mommy owns all the morning hugs, kisses, and the stories of her good and bad dreams. Mommy pampers and gets pampered. Even in the daytime, Mommy rules, until she scolds San on some petty things and San screams "I want Papa!" And if Papa dear is around at that time, Mommy's time is done!
Milk time, homework time, playtime, story time, pasta time, massage time, timeout time, Mommy-not-well time, Mommy-gone-crazy time, Mommy-doesn't-wanna-cook time - they are all owned by Daddy!
Did Daddy win already?? Nope. :D
Ask San and she'll say, "I'm Daddy's girl.... AND Mommy's girl too!"

Seems San is getting best of both mommy and daddy :-). Good one Liquid! Care to pen for inspiredspirits.net?
ReplyDeleteThanks, Pumpum!! Yup, best ( and not-so-good) of both :) Oh, and you said it, even before I could ask you to let me write for inspiredspirits! I've been a silent reader so far. Would love to contribute! Thanks! :)
DeleteI think I was like your cutie pie..(still am) I would always say I love both mom and day!
ReplyDeleteAnd, my kids say the same..just with time they also add EQUALLY ;)
Kids are quite clever! They know what to say, and when
DeleteAbsolutely how it is in my house! Though, the boys and I do share a special bond via our love for reading, that daddy does not have!! :)
ReplyDeleteI agree! Those special things that are specific to Mommy and Daddy are always there, and they strengthen the bond even more. :)
