So -- this morning marked a new change in my daughter's diva status. For the first time, today she said: "Mommy, I mad at you." Awwww! It broke my heart. (I had taken her brother's "Sponge Bob" book away from her so she wouldn't scribble all over it.) Anyway - it took her a long time to recover. And it took me a long time to get over my wounded ego at hearing her say that! But unfortunately I have a feeling that I will be hearing that for a good long time - til like, she's 18?
