Not Quite What I Meant

Toddlers aren’t famous for giving their Mama’s much space or privacy.

Sometimes I’ll ask Lil’ A…

“Please can I have some privacy, A?”

and then she’ll pretend to grab something off a shelf or out of the bathtub and ‘hand’ it to me. “Here’s some privacy, Mama!”

or if I ask…

“Can Mama have some space please?”

and then she’ll pretend to grab something off a shelf or out of the bathtub and ‘hand’ it to me. “Here’s your space Mama!”

Then she looks at me with that cutest little troublemaker grin, feeling so proud of herself. And then I laugh and my heart bursts and I forget why I wanted space and privacy in the first place…
