"I'll Be Fine"

Tweet This


After reading to Vinny the other night before bedtime, he says, "you should go be with daddy."

"I should?" I say. "Why?"

"Because he's your husband, and you should spend time with him," says Vinny.

"So you don't want me to stay until you fall asleep?" I ask. "Are you going to be ok?"

"I'll be fine," Vinny assures me. "I fell asleep by all myself last night."

It's funny how an 8 year old child can be so full of wisdom one moment, and full of something else, the next.

Oh, the paradox of parenting. It's enough to drive a crazy person, sane. But for the moment, I believe I will hang onto to crazy, otherwise, I might start drinking.
