Ouch - A Lesson in Contentment by Kendall

While I was cutting up some fabric today, Kendall was playing with play dough. She said she wanted more, and I told her to be content with what she had. I then went on to explain what contentment means.

About a minute later, she says to me, "Mama, you be tent with fabwic. You don't get more fabwic. You be tent."

She told me!

    Then today, on my google reader, you posted this about contentment, and my other friend posted this:

  5. If you don't listen to her you'll break her heart...so you should probably just obey her.
