elfish

we have been talking to aislyn about our selfish hearts and making good and bad choices, since she could talk. with that said, i will share a story.

aislyn dresses herself now. she has recently been likened to someone who is about to join the peace corp. (ie. hippy, lots of patterns, that don't match, at all). she was putting on a dirty shirt with a dress and i insisted that she pick a different shirt. she argued and argued, and i was about to "get the spoon" when she says,

"MOM. you can be elfish... or you can help me. it's your choice."

yes, she said elfish instead of selfish. and YES, i had to leave the room because i could NOT hold back a smile.

my dad's comment? "have fun payin' for your raisin'."
