She had been made to remove her extremely muddy shoes and socks inside the house earlier, and now offered the logic that she put the pot holders on because her feet were cold. A wise adult uses such moments for teaching opportunities. For example, potholders are for hot things not cold things, which she now knows, and I did not make her take them off. It might be extremely useful one day that she can eat toaster waffles with her feet.
SHE was surprised a little today when she found her Easter basket at Easter brunch at her Sunday School teacher’s house. The SS teacher invited me for brunch and then was shocked to see a child with me. Oops. “Do you want me to make her wait in the car?” I helpfully offered. The SS teacher said “No; I just need to make another Easter basket really fast. Look for small things laying around my house that she would like!”
T’s favorite thing in her Easter basket (which did look pretty much like a wicker wastepaper basket) was a pair of reading glasses, although it was hard for her to climb stairs while wearing them.

Very funny! How much of this is true?
I didn't teach her to eat toaster waffles with her feet but the rest is true. Maybe she can eat toaster waffles with her feet; even that part isn't a lie exactly, only unknown.
