Hurtin' Mom's Feelings



Okay, this is the first time Parker has actually hurt my feelings. Yesterday she told me that Dad was her favorite and that didn't hurt my feelings. But this? I just can't believe that she doesn't care about these pajamas I made for her. I know I shouldn't let it bother me but I can't help it. I spent at least 5-6 hours making those pajamas. And that doesn't include time spent trying to pick out cute patterned fabric that Parker would appreciate. This is flannel backed satin we're talking about. I did consider her warmth at night when she wears these beautiful silky but cozy pajamas. Tonight Parker got paint on her sleeper so I suggested that she go put on the pajamas I made for her. She came out wearing this ensemble.




I said that maybe we should pack up the pajamas I made and save them for Georgia and Parker quickly agreed. She went to her bedroom and brought the pajamas out for me. She then repeated what I had said (her first time using the word appreciate), "I don't appreciate them so maybe Georgia will appreciate them".

I hope Georgia likes them. I made a blanket for Georgia out of the same fabric. We'll see.
