I wanted to share my conversation with my DD age 5. It made me remember what it's like to see things from a child's perspective.


DD: *sadly* Mummy, I'm never going to be a princess, am I?
Me: What do you mean?
DD: I'm never going to be a princess and live in a forest.
Me: You will always be a princess to me.
DD: But I'll never be a real princess.
Me: You are a real princess to me - Princess Jessica Rose.
DD: Mummy, I don't want to be called Jessica Rose any more. Call me Briar Rose now, OK?

I didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Why do they have to grow up?

Awww bless your little Princess!

Adorable It's wonderful what they come out with at times, they can be so unpredictable!

 

[T16GEM]

That is so cute! Bless her!

Ahhhhh bless her.

I know just what you mean about them having to grow up. If I could have, I would have cast a spell on my 3 DDs a few years ago to keep them at the innocent ages of 9, 7 and 5. Unfortunately I couldn't quite master it and they are now all teenagers (well, the youngest is almost one) and DH is rapidly going very grey!!

Mine are 9, 5 and 1. It makes me sad that the eldest is definitely quite sceptical about Father Christmas. I love the way they see things so differently when they are little. Jess once asked if she could climb into the tv and fly with Peter Pan - she really thought she could. She also said she would look after me when I became a baby again - she thought that as she grew older, I would grow younger...if only.

I am quite sad that my daughter's ambition is now to grow up and have a big house next door to mine. Just a year ago, it was to live in a big house with me. Apparently her dad and brother would have been living next door then!

Your lucky - my DD (6) seems to think that myself and DH will be moving out as she will be living here with her "DH" and kids!
