72 Degrees of Separation

After our enormously, tremendously, incredibly busy superweekend, I woke up grouchy and it didn't take long for my mood to rub off on DD. Then, we proceeded to our reading lesson. Bad idea. Really bad. We both became even more frustrated (big surprise). I cancelled the lesson, took a short break and tried to come back as a different person. The rest of the day went something like this:

DD: Why don't you love me anymore?
Evil Mommy: I do love you, always and forever.
DD: But you don't forgive me.
EM: I do forgive you, but there is nothing to forgive.

And on and on. Oh dear. I can hear her future therapist now...

However, we did enjoy several bright spots in between the angst. It was a gorgeous day and we spent most of it outside. Hallelujah!
