You like me, you really like me!


Andrew was invited to play at his friends' house this afternoon. In the car on the way over, I explained to him that they have a nanny.

Andrew: What's a nanny?

Me: It's like a babysitter all the time, when the kids get home from school.

Andrew: Where is their dad?

Me: At work.

Andrew: Where is their mom?

Me: At work.

~pause~

Andrew: I'm glad you are home, Mom.

~choirs of angels begin to sing~

Andrew: I wouldn't want to have a nanny.

Me, feeling overjoyed: I can't even tell you how happy I am to hear that, Andrew.
I am very glad to be your mom all the time.

Cute moments like that make all the undesirable moments but an oblivion when looking into the past.
