I say yes to many many things in my little girls life. 
Sometimes I say "in a little while" and sometimes I say "no". Lately she has been giving me conditional invitations in anticipation of my declines. 
"Mama you can just sit and knit while I play beside you".
These are beautiful reminders of how much girls need their moms. Even when they aren't sure why or how they need us. 
I always appreciate these reminders to do my job better and to be a better person for her to access. 
I fail many times a day but so far I'm still given second chances.
