Don't Call Me a Honey

She just left the shop, Cloey. She belongs to a friend and is four years old and cute as a button. I instantly fell in love.

Somewhere during the conversation I called her, Honey.

She turns to me, stomps her little foot and said, "Stop calling me Honey."

We laughed. I knelt before her and took her into my arms, then said, "Okay, Sweetheart. I'll never again call you Honey."

Her, big smile. Then, "Good. I like Sweetheart. You can call me Sweetheart all day long."

I want a little girl. So bad.

  1. I guess she told you. Funny how they like their own things! Sweet and pretty little girl. She was polite about it. Happy Easter if you celebrate with eggs. I don't have lil ones. I will instead celebrate a more traditional Easter. Hope its cold enough to crank the oven. Hope ya have a nice day.

  2. They can steal our hearts so easily, at that age. Hope the rest of your day goes that sweetly.
