Today E surprised and scared me (for her own sake) as she stated "I'm just like you daddy!" Wow, very powerful and very frightful words to hear.
Powerful and nice to know that at 2.5 years, E still sees me as someone to look up to and emulate. I know that coming from a toddler, this may seem trivial however I will take what I can now for the future may not hold such willing compliments.
Frightful and scary that my E might turn out to be anything like me. I am just hoping for her that what ever part of me she may exhibit, that it may be some of my few but tolerable traits.
If I remember correctly, the statement came from E after pointing out a particularly pretty tree in full Autumn color. I have been half jokingly for weeks, pointing out the splendor of fall and how much I like it. M likens it to force feeding and states that I will probably drive E in the opposite direction. Well, if that is true, then she will certainly hate Christmas.
