Let the dog in!

The Kid has had a growth spurt and not just in her legs. In one week, she had her first dentist visit, including teeth cleaning, started a kids’ only swim class, and began having lunches at school. I have to remember to carry around a book or my latest torture project called the ribbed scarf, since in my new position, I am needed only to transport her from place to place. I know, it’s only the beginning. Except for now peeing all over the floors, she seems to have taken it all in stride. I am only needed to start her computer game, the most annoying and most favored one being Freddi Fish, and then leave her alone so she can “do it my own way.” But just as I start listening to all the “back off, Mommy” “go away, Mommy” and “stop talking, Mommy,” she suddenly cries seeing me get my hair washed at the salon and must be held. Ah, to be needed again.
