These Conversations, Part 2
Last week:
Me (As I was cleaning, from a distant part of home upon realizing my daughter had been quiet for far too long):
"Sayler... Hey, what are you doing?..."
Her: "It was an accident..."
Yesterday:
Sayler (randomly and without incident):
Me (As I was cleaning, from a distant part of home upon realizing my daughter had been quiet for far too long):

Her: "It was an accident..."
Yesterday:
Sayler (randomly and without incident):
"Mommy... are you mad wif me?"
Mommy: "No, baby, I'm not mad at you..."
Sayler: "Oh... maybe tomorrow...."
Mommy: "No, baby, I'm not mad at you..."
Sayler: "Oh... maybe tomorrow...."
And This morning:
Me (quite frustrated): "SAYLERRRRR, mommy said to put the tops back on your markers!"
Her: "Oh, don't worry 'bout it..."
Me: (irrationally trying to argue): "Yes, I am worried about it!"
Her (casually): "Oh, it's okay mommy, don't worry 'bout it..."
Me (growing ever more impatient): "It's not okay!"
Her (still cool and collected): "It's okay, mommy, don't worry 'bout it..."
Rinse. Lather. Repeat. Ooph!
This girl is quite lovely but her nonchalance will be my ruin...
