Tonight when I got home with my new haircut, my middle child, who is normally a very sweet, very “attached to Mommy” little girl, made a not so nice remark about it…she was teasing, but I still let her know it wasn’t nice. I was surprised when I came to my computer later and found a sealed envelope sitting on of my keyboard - and the envelope had a little “kiss” on it (I guess she used her play makeup to do that!)
Anyway, here’s the note, complete with her horrible spelling:
Dear Mommy,
I’m sorry that I said “your hair was hidous”!! After that I went up to my room and thought about it and now I think you are beatiful with it like that. I said that because at first I thought that it look weird. And bad but now it is like the ugly ducking growing into a swan!! So I hope you acept my apologs.
Love: Grace
To: Mommy
I ask you - who could resist a note like that?
Aw, that is so sweet! You’re such a cute little swan too! lol
I’m cracking up that Grace even said that in the first place!!! LOL! Nice note, though. ![]()
That is so sweet!! I’m glad she realized her error. It sounds like she didn’t really want to offend you in any way!
How sweet is that? Did you cry? I would have!
That is SO sweet!!!
Totally adorable and precious that she would go to all that trouble - what a wonderful child!!!
[...] Colleen asserts that I am a Swan at Simple Kind of Life, and it’s true: she really is. [...]
What a sweetheart!
Visiting via the carnival and I got a good laugh. That note is great! I’d keep it for the good stuff file if I was you. Someday she will be so embarassed that she wrote that!
Oh, I love stuff like this! I’ve kept many such momentos from my son’s younger years and I treasure them all. What a sweet and thoughtful child you’re raising!
Great story! And very sweet!
Cute story Colleen! I think your new-do looks great btw. ![]()
When did you discover that she had used your lipstick? LOL
Great story.
Great story! You’ll have to keep that for when she’s older.
teaching your children well colleen!
