This afternoon, Annabelle woke up from her nap and announced she needed to place an urgent call to Daddy at work. She has just learned the word urgent, because she asked what critical meant, and someone described it as urgent. Since then, she says urgent with a serious sense of urgency – and it makes me laugh.
So, we called him. “Hi Daddy. I was wondering, can we do something SESHCHAL (special) tonight? It’s urgent we do something seshschal!” After much conversation, Daddy told her that he would come home with a surprise plan…
And when he arrived, he suggested they drive to Penguin Park for some playground time and a picnic.
“Mommy,” she told me, “I have the best daddy EVER.”
Yes, you do.
