Elaine sent me some wonderful soaps and candles from Brazil at the end of last year, and the girls asked me if they could have some; so, I told them, "Yes, you can have one each."
Brianna stomped out of the bathroom soaking wet, dripping
water all over the hardwood floors. She
leaned abruptly onto the evil black couch of endless laundry and in a huff with
extreme discontent she said, "Mom, I'm out of my banana soap."
I looked at her and said, "Honey, just use the other
soap."
She stared at me in disbelief raising her voice just a bit
and said, "No!"
I replied a bit shocked, "Brianna what in the world do
you expect me to do? Get on a plane and go to Brazil just to get you some
banana soap?"
She looked at me very seriously and said, "Yes!"
She then turned to her right and marched directly back into
my bathroom and slammed the door.
Now most people would think Brianna was being a bit bratty,
but as soon as I heard the door slam shut I started laughing hysterically.
It’s quite obvious to me now, I gave birth to two little
princesses that expect the best at all times; and honestly, to expect less in a
person’s life is simply absurd unless of course that’s what a person truly
wants. ;) ©
