Sad..
I am sad. My daughter caught me off guard last night. She has been on this confession kick lately, I receive 3-4 phone calls every day from her, confessing all her sins. Everything she has done bad in the short 8 years of her life. I honestly have been a little frustrated with in, but I keep guarateeing her that she is a good person, and trading some marbles for a tech deck does not make her bad. So last night she pulled me into my room for some privacy, and I thought it was going to be one of those conversations. So when she asked me about her question, I was a little confused. I was crouched down in front of her, making eye contact, so, when she said, "Mom, tell me the truth, there is no Santa is there?"
Gulp??!!
What do you say? I asked her is she wanted the truth. I am a terrible liar. Especially in close proximity. I told her the truth...my heart breaking. The innocence is leaving her. So she also figured out the Easter Bunny and Tooth Fairy were us too. Sigh.
Good thing her older brother still believes.
