Conversations with Sandy
I have a list on my desktop that I update whenever Sandy says something silly or weird. It’s a long list already but I want to share this one with you first – Whenever I go out, I tell Sandy that I won’t take long. She lets me leave the house now (yes, I’m free!) but I need to explain to her why, where and who I’m meeting. For this entry, it was about the night when we had to visit a friend who just gave birth. I promised Sandy we’ll be home early knowing that we won’t take long. We left around 7PM but all our friends were there and we had so much fun talking that we forgot the time. We came home at exactly 11PM to find that Sandy was still awake.
Sandy: Mommy mommy mommy I missed you!!!
ME: Hi baby, come on let’s go to sleep.
She seemed happy and didn’t mind us being late so we turned off the lights. After saying our prayers and her papa is done telling her a story, she seemed to remember something.
Sandy: Mommy, why did you take so long?
ME: (not sure if I heard her right) What baby?
Sandy: You. took. so. long. You said you will not take long!
ME: (not sure how to react, it’s not everyday that your child will question how late you got home) erm…. sorry?
Sandy: next time don’t do that again. that’s bad. you said you will only say hi to your friends but you came home late. you took so long. don’t do that! (she’s starting to get angry here promise)
ME: (still a bit uncertain and getting nervous) okay baby sorry sorry don’t get angry. We forgot the time so we took long. but tito cliff and tita lorna wanted to say hi to you. (obviously trying to distract her)
Sandy: You said you will come back early. That’s not a nice thing to do. when you said you will just say hi, just say hi….. (blah blah blah )
She wouldn’t stop arguing just because I sounded so guilty. Honestly, I was so shocked that I had to explain myself to her.
