These are things my 4 yr old daughter has done lately.
Yesterday I had a converstation with my daughter that ended up being very serious. She's currently curious about death, dying, and hunting. On the way to BK she said to me "When I grow up and you get old are you and Daddy gonna die?" Golly what a question! So I talked with her about it quite a while. The subject came up about Uncle David who is not doing well and may pass away any day. I thought it fair to warn her gently about it. She was quite dismayed and said "Aww Uncle David?? I like him. I'll miss him then." After talking about it a while she was ok with it but I was driving with tears in my eyes.

This morning she woke up and I reminded her it was Mother's day. My daughter promptly declared that I needed to be fed breakfast in bed. Then dismayed, said that she couldn't make it for me but that she could make coffee for me. She then proceeded to get a coffee mug, fill it with water, put it in the microwave, then came to ask how many minutes to put it on. I told her, she got down my instant coffee, couldn't open and asked for help, but then told me to get right back in bed. Then she fixed it including put creamer in it. She did it pretty good job for a 4 yr old. Just a little bit strong but ohhhh so sweet to the heart.
