The other day I turned on the TV knowing Sesame Street was about to come on. Ella walked in the room, excited that the TV was on, and asked me, "Mommy, do you like us to watch TV?" I said, "Well... I like it best when you play and use your imagination, but I know you like to watch TV, so I'm happy to turn it on for you on occasion." She said, "I really like watching TV." I continued with my "life lesson" saying, "It's okay to watch a little TV now and then..." and then went about my business in the kitchen.
A few moments passed and I heard Ella say, "Mommy, know what I'm thankful for?"
"What, Ella?"
"YOU!" But before I even had a chance to settle in on Cloud 9, she added, "...for letting us watch TV!"
That's Awesome! :)
