We were sitting down to a nice dinner last night when Katey starts the following conversation:
KATEY: "Mommy, do you remember when we went to Chuck E Cheese and had pizza for a snack but didn't actually have dinner that night?"
MOMMY: "Um, when was this, Sweetie?"
KATEY: "Probably like a year ago..."
MOMMY: (Looking at Daddy with questioning eyes) "You mean when we met the Molendorps there last Christmas?"
KATEY: "Yes."
MOMMY: "Okay, what about it?"
KATEY: (As she is taking a bite of dinner) "Well, we didn't have dinner that night and I am still pretty upset about that."
Fantastic.
This conversation was quickly followed-up with an explanation of what holding a grudge is and why we shouldn't do such a thing. Oh, and it was also pointed out that we really haven't missed any meals since then and no harm came from foregoing dinner after having pizza for a "snack" at 4PM! I think we have our hands full with this little girl. We just pray that, when it comes to fun and wonderful things, her memory is just as good!

I am amazed at the things kids can remember...but for some reason, they can't remember to clean their room, brush their teeth, etc., etc....
So funny! :-)
