It doesn’t happen often, but once in a while, things just go right.
\nI had a meeting today in someone’s home and decided to bring our girl. It was my first attempt to work with her there (and no back-up!). I knew things could get kind of wild.<\/p>\n
She was dressed in her ballet outfit for our home “dance class.” She didn’t want to change. I explained that she had to put on pants, a shirt, etc. Next thing I know, I’m turning around and I see her stripping, even her tights. She threw it all on the floor. I asked her to put it on the dance shelf. She did, and then proceeded to dress herself without any help.<\/p>\n
We made it to the car, drove, arrived, entered, all with enjoyable conversation.<\/p>\n
Once there, I set her up at the child’s table (the host had some markers & colouring book, I had stickers). And she entertained herself for over an hour. I glanced over often, and gave her a snack half-way through, and yes, at the end she came to my lap for some um-nums … and in case you missed it, she entertained herself for over an hour!! While I had my meeting!!<\/p>\n
Then we headed home, my parental and career confidence soaring. She was utterly sweet, cooperative and wonderful. Thank you again for my daughter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
