DD's new years resolution

DD will be 4 in March and when I picked her up yesterday there was a chart with all the kid's new years resolutions.  Alot of them put to be nice to a sibling (she could have put that), learn to read/ be a better reader.  DD put spend more time with mommy.  The kid after her put spend more time baking with mommy, but they were the only ones who put something to do with time.  At 1st I thought how sweet, but now I feel pretty bad that she doesn't think we get alot of time together.  I drop her off very early, 6:45, but I pick her up by 3:30, and usually closer to 3, so I know she does get more time with mommy than alot of the kids in her class.  I know I'm looking too much into this, but it does sting a bit.

Re: DD's new years resolution

  • From a 4-year-old's perspective I would imagine that to be a compliment.  She likes spending time with you and wants to do more of that.  I don't think she is saying she's not getting enough time now; that is kind of beyond the thinking of a 4-year-old, KWIM?

  • Awww, I think that is sweet.  I agree with aglenn - she likes her time with you.  Maybe set aside something special for just the two of you to do once a week.  It sounds like she would really enjoy that!
