Story of the Day 11/ 23/ 2010

Esther is home for the holiday.

She finds it very stressful to be around us, so she usually limits her visits to very short ones.
We all know this. We all admit this. We even admit that the reason is that we annoy her.
A lot.

This morning, we were talking and I told her that maybe she could keep a chart of how much we are annoying her. I told her , “ You could put down that you’ve been home a whole day and we haven’t annoyed you very much , yet!”

Esther replied, “It hasn’t been 24 hours yet, Mom!”

“Well, I was being optimistic, “I explained.

“Don’t count your chickens before they die.”

Maybe the chart was a bad idea…….
